- Rsync is a fast and extraordinarily versatile file copying tool for
- both remote and local files.
-
- Rsync uses a delta-transfer 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.  At
- first glance this may seem impossible because the calculation of diffs
- between two files normally requires local access to both files."
