Hi there, I was wondering if there was anyway to use rsync to effectively create a 'diff' file?
I have a situation where I don't have a network connection to certain files that are multi-gigabyte and binary (mainly), but they vary little. In order for me to have an up-to-date copy of the files, if I could create differences between revisions of the files and then email those differences, I could patch a local copy of the files that I get one-off initially on CD. Does that sound like a daft idea? Or even feasible? Or is there a better way, anyone can think of (if they are not busy :) ) cheers steve -- To unsubscribe or change options: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
