rsync delta between binary files

hi, easy question: I need to know which size the delta is, rsync produces when syncing two particular (binary) files. So to speak: what will go over the wire, in the end. Is this what rdiff does? Hendrik -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before
