This is Debian/GNU Linux's prepackaged version of Andrew Tridgell and
Paul Mackerras' rsync utility.  This package provides the rsync program,
which is a replacement for rcp that uses the rsync algorythm to
transfer only the differences between two sets of files.

This package was put together by me, Philip Hands <phil@hands.com>,
from the sources, which I obtained from:
  ftp://samba.anu.edu.au/pub/rsync/rsync-1.6.3.tar.gz.

The changes were very minimal - merely adding support for the Debian
package maintenance scheme, by adding various debian/* files, and
tweaking the Makefile.in to allow the install prefix to be changed.
