Not really: this would store the metadata in /var/cache/edb/dep To generate the metadata use something like egencache --update --repo=gentoo but this will be lost with the next syncing. If you really want to do this regularly (and be independent of gentoo infrastructure) you should perhaps use git instead of rsync.
