Other alternatives: Rsync and Airdroid. The latter runs a web server on
the phone and you can drag and drop stuff using the Wifi connection :-)

See also mtpfs (yum install ...) for use over USB connections. Mounts
the phone using FUSE and lets you use standard utilities to copy files.
*However* it's worth remembering that the underlying MTP protocol, which
is the only one supported over USB on Android 4, is very limited, e.g.
no seeking or incremental updates, plus IIRC no moving files between
directories, so don't expect it to work like a thumb drive. Mtpfs tries
to disguise this by using a local backing store, but you need to be very
careful to unmount the phone properly before disconnecting it or killing
the mtpfs process.
