Brand Details
Type: Product
Description: Rsync, short for remote synchronization, is a command-line utility used for efficiently transferring and synchronizing files and directories between computers. It's particularly useful for minimizing data transfer by only copying changed portions of files, making it efficient for large files or across networks. Rsync is commonly found on Unix-like systems and is available on many Linux distributions by default. It supports various options to control file permissions, handle connection interruptions, exclude specific files, and more. It can be used for backups, website deployments, and synchronizing data across multiple locations. Rsync can also run in daemon mode (`rsyncd`) to act as a file server.
