Files can also be transferred between two remote systems via ssh. So, 
one of them can be only a data hosting.

Only for the /devuan repo.  The /merged repo uses url rewriting to refer
to /devuan, deb-multimedia, and debian using amprolla.  So you will need
to replicate packages.devuan.org/devuan and run amprolla which does the
url rewriting and will need to be configured to redirect to your nearest
upstream mirrors.

Ok! :) One more question:

Suppose at some point a new mirror had to be set up (for example
in Australia).

Is the mirror then just a copy of a directory - for example,
"/dists/devuan" on an FTP or HTTP server - or does it require actively
running software for self-maintainance (like the "rebuild" operation
you have described)?

Best regards,
T.

I'm busy now and it will take me about a week. I need to add a script
for the *.git sources (i suppose they are generated by Jenkins). After
that i will rebuild the /dist/ folder. Once this aim has been archieved,
the repository will be up-to-date automatically using contrab, because
rsync only download/upload the changes.

Ok, because i got an inquiry on #devuan asking if there is or will be
a mirror in AARNET (Australian Research and Education Network).

Users in there are very bandwidth-limited, i.e. they need stuff to be
inside the AARNET network.

AARNET runs a mirror of lots of free software at

http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/

They claim to be liberal about what  they consider for mirroring, but my
understanding is that it has to be a "passive" directory of data; an active
software can not be run there, unless we find volunteers maintaining it.

Again, main goal of that mirror was for users to have the bulk of the
traffic inside AARNET, which is free for them; therefore, if a mirror can
host all the .deb, while some external site hosts generated Packages files,
my guess is, that would not be a showstopper.

Also, i bring this forth to discussion on an exemplary basis, and to further
my understanding of how Devuan mirroring works.

Best regards,
T.

Added the missing packages, but now i must rebuild the /dist/ folder,
