rsync will do that for you.

rsync -aP [source directory] [dest directory]

If your files are highly compressible, and not too large
(where 'too large' is probably defined by the amount of
memory you have), you can use the -z flag as well; this will
compress your files before they go over wire, and save you
even more time.
