Look at rdiff-backup here: http://www.nongnu.org/rdiff-backup/

Well, this can only sync in one direction, but it is very good at it.
I'm using it to synchronize big directories (20GB data, thousands of
hundreds of small files) over an ADSL connection and it works.

If you need to sync in both directions, I would recommend subversion.
There is a python module for subversion. Although subversion is not
lightweight, and you really need to read its (very long) documentation.

Best,

Laszlo
