I have a question about what happens at the code level when I use --whole-file. I know that it turns off the rolling checksum. I also understand that it only checks the file's mtime and size to identify whether there should be some transfer. Two questions:

1) Could anyone give me a pointer to the correct file so that I can read what happens when --whole-file is used? 2) When using --whole-file, does rsync use any kind of hash function after transferring the file to make sure that the originating and newly copied file are the same?

Thanks,
Van
