Rsync remote path is read as a local path
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I want to upload a folder to my VPS. But when I run:
rsync -a --exclude=/node_modules ~/MyCoolProject/ root@X.X.X.X/:var/MyCoolProject
X.X.X.X being the IP address of my VPS. I get the following error:
rsync: mkdir "/Users/remi/root@X.X.X.X/:var/MyCoolProject" failed: No such file or directory (2)
So it's looking for a root@X.X.X.X path on my local machine instead of connecting to the remote via SSH.
What am I doing wrong?

rsync -a ... root@X.X.X.X/:var/MyCoolProject
^--remove
Remove the slash after "X.X.X.X". It's causing rsync to interpret the argument as a local directory instead of a remote directory.
Longer explanation: Rsync lets you specify a remote location using variations of the form:
user@host:/remote/directory
where host is a hostname or IP address. In your case, the "host" portion of your remote location is "X.X.X.X/". A valid hostname or IP address can't contain a "/", so rsync doesn't accept the argument as a remote location. Instead it falls back to interpreting the argument as a local directory name.
