Seems more like an rsync to an encrypted partition would be best
suited here. Use a VPN if you want to do it remotely encrypted.

I believe that most (or at least many do) Linux distro's already have
Ruby, Perl, and Python now -- so I would venture a guess (and a
hopeful one) that they chose whatever language worked the best for
whatever function or whatever skill set author X could do feature Y in
better. Just a guess...
