It's likely that the remote directory 'reqs' doesn't exist -- put()
drops files *inside* the remote_dir argument. (This behavior may need
tweaking or at least better docs, as the docstring doesn't seem to
cover it -- but that's how it works right now IIRC.)

So you probably want to specify something like put('reqs/', '') if you
truly wanted the remote directory to be $HOME/reqs/<stuff which was
inside your local reqs/ folder>.
