Sorry, but it seems everytime I setup a different rsync operation (client only) I end up here unraveling the include/exclude stuff I need. The documentation is quite good but I guess the subject is just quite a bit to chew. To cut to the chase: I want to sync up my own snapshot repository of ope

Rsync for program loading on embedded platforms

2004-06-01 Thread Greger Cronquist
Hi, Has anyone considered using the rsync algorithm for loading programs on embedded platforms? I.e. with low cpu power (say, 16-25 MHz ARM7) and low memory requirements (programs are < 128 KB, and the rsync algorithm must use little ROM and RAM). Or is it just not worth the effort? I guess you
