 - If your script prompts for a password on the remote system, make sure that your user account is setup not to require passwords in the sudoers file.

This will overwrite the `SSH_PORT=22` at the top of the script as it is imported later in the execution. 
 - If you'd like to know what version of the script you have running by running `./gravity-sync.sh version`
