I'm new to rsync, just read little of codes right now. I have read the pipe line would be "generator → sender → receiver". But I didn't find where rsync makes sure that the file is going to be transfered (time stamp/file checksum).
A. Is there anyone familiar with the code, can give me some tips on a) where generator send the time stamp/file checksum b) where sender compared time stamp/file stamp c) where receiver make sure that it's a go mission? I think some function names is enough for me shorten the time and get a basic understanding of the code. Thanks in advance.
