. If it matches, it skips it. If it doesn't match, it just transfers just the difference. It then replaces the checksum of that transferred file to the cache. That way one could have a remote data store and not have to run rsync on the remote system. IE, you could have a mapped drive or FTP

suppose it could be cached at either storage location. if you use rsync on a mapped drive, you have no local and remote storage location from an rsync`s point of view, because rsync isn`t being executed on the remote node. so if rsync calculates a checksum it`s always transferring the whole file
