I am syncing a blog file structure from my web provider to my local machine. I do it half for backup and half because I am learning/playing around with styles and need an easy way to edit images and send them back to the web provider.

The template_c folder gives me issues because of rights. So my options are:
1- Don't sync that folder
2- Run cron to make the folder more sync friendly: change owner, make group something web server can write and make group writeable.

Knowing what the folder is/does would go a long way on better deciding.

templates_c is a cache folder. Smarty templates are cached in that location. Certain plugins may also cache info there.

You don't need to backup template_c. Its used to store temporary files.

Thanks for the info. I was not aware of the fact that it works as a cache folder.
