Thanks in advance for your effort. On first invocation emerge-delta-webrsync pulled a complete snapshot (as described in your blog). On second invocation I got: Looking for available base versions for a delta fetching patches failed fetching snapshot-20050503-20050504.patch.bz2.md5sum no patches found? up to date? syncing Syncing local tree... building file list ... 114391 files to consider Number of files: 114391 Number of files transferred: 0 Total file size: 89923713 bytes Total transferred file size: 0 bytes Literal data: 0 bytes Matched data: 0 bytes File list size: 2701117 Total bytes written: 2701170 Total bytes read: 20 wrote 2701170 bytes read 20 bytes 125636.74 bytes/sec total size is 89923713 speedup is 33.29 cleaning up transferring metadata/cache skipping sync >>> Updating Portage cache: 100% Is there any way to skip syncing if no patches are found? emerge sync uses a timestamp for that purpose, doesn't it?
