zsync is a file transfer program to download files from remote web servers.
|
||
|
|
If a previous version of a file is available locally, zsync will only download
|
||
|
|
changed parts and hereby minimise the download volume. The algorithm is the
|
||
|
|
same as used by rsync(1), but zsync does not require any server software
|
||
|
|
(apart from a web server), nor does it need shell access. Instead, it uses
|
||
|
|
a control file (.zsync file) that describes the file to be downloaded, which
|
||
|
|
it uses to determine the blocks to fetch. This file is created once on the
|
||
|
|
server (and not for each request) and sits next to actual file to download."
