This is Debian's prepackaged version of Andrew Tridgell and
|
|
Paul Mackerras' rsync utility.
|
|
|
|
This package provides the rsync program, which is a replacement
|
|
for rcp that uses the rsync algorythm to transfer only the
|
|
differences between two sets of files.
|
|
|
|
This package was put together by Philip Hands <phil@hands.com>,
|
|
from sources obtained from:
|
|
http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.5.4.tar.gz
|
|
The current version was downloaded from:
|
|
https://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/src/rsync-3.2.0.tar.gz
|
|
on 2018-12-02 by Samuel Henrique <samueloph@debian.org>.

from around the world.

The license of rsync also adds an OpenSSL exemption:

REGARDING OPENSSL AND XXHASH

In addition, as a special exception, the copyright holders give

permission to dynamically link rsync with the OpenSSL and xxhash
|
|
libraries when those libraries are being distributed in compliance
|
|
with their license terms, and to distribute a dynamically linked
|
|
combination of rsync and these libraries. This is also considered
|
|
to be covered under the GPL's System Libraries exception.
