There is in fact an explaination directly on bombich.com <http://help.bombich.com/kb/overview/credits> rsync Carbon Copy Cloner also includes, independently in binary form, rsync version 3.0.6. rsync is made available under the GNU General Public License. Per the license requirements, the source code and my modifications may be downloaded via the links provided below. This modified software is provided at no cost and with no warranty, also per the GNU GPL. • Download the complete rsync 3.0.6 project • Download the rsync 3.0.6 patches • Download the diff file (diff between 3.0.6 + [crtimes.diff, fileflags.diff, log-checksum.diff, and backup-dir-dels.diff] and my modifications) • View the GNU GPL Carbon Copy Cloner is not a derivative work of rsync. Rsync is called in binary form only. /thomas _______________________________________________ MacOSX-admin mailing list [email protected] http://www.omnigroup.com/mailman/listinfo/macosx-admin
