This is useful if the files are compressed at the source. If you want only the destination side to be compressed, you'll need something beyond a stock rsync.

The patch is in the "patches" dir of the rsync distribution under the name gzip-rsyncable-checksum.diff. ..wayne.. -- To unsubscribe or change options: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/rsync Before posting, read: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
