title: Best way to copy files from Docker volume on remote server to local host?
body: <p>I've got,</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>My laptop</li>
  <li>A remote server I can SSH into which has a Docker volume inside of which are some files I'd like to copy to my laptop.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>What is the best way to copy these files over? Bonus points for using things like rsync, etc.. which are fast / can resume / show me progress and not writing any temporary files. </p>
  
  <p>Note: my user on the remote server does not have permission to just scp the data straight out of the volume mount in <code>/var/lib/docker</code>, although I can run any containers on there. </p>
