Fold the standalone rsync-web repo into the rsync source tree as rsync-web/, eliminating the sibling-checkout convention and the drift it causes between the release-time HTML snapshot in ../release/rsync-html and the source of truth in ../rsync-web. Flat-copy import (no git history merge). The standalone repo at github.com/RsyncProject/rsync-web is retained for historical reference and will be archived once the in-tree copy proves itself. Add /rsync-web/ to .gitattributes with export-ignore so the website content does not bloat the release source tarball produced by 'git archive' in packaging/release.py step_7_tarball. A follow-up commit repoints HTML_SRC in packaging/release.py at the new in-tree location.

rsync is a file transfer program for Unix systems. rsync uses the
|
|
"rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for bringing
|
|
remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the differences
|
|
in the files across the link, without requiring that both sets of
|
|
files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand. <p>
|
|
|
|
Some features of rsync include
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> can update whole directory trees and filesystems
|
|
<li> optionally preserves symbolic links, hard links, file ownership,
|
|
permissions, devices and times
|
|
<li> requires no special privileges to install
|
|
<li> internal pipelining reduces latency for multiple files
|
|
<li> can use rsh, ssh or direct sockets as the transport
|
|
<li> supports <A HREF="http://dslab.lzu.edu.cn:8080/members/wangbj/wangbaojun/howtos/rsync-mirror-HOWTO/rsync-mirroring02.html">anonymous rsync</A> which is ideal for mirroring
|
|
</ul>
