File-Rsync - A wrapper module for rsync(1) http://rsync.samba.org/rsync/ ******************************************************************************* Copyright (C) 2000-2005 Lee Eakin. All rights reserved. This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the same terms as Perl itself. ******************************************************************************* Updated to support new options of rsync 2.6.5-pre1 If you are using an older version than rsync 2.6.2, please check out the latest version. There have been several fixes and significant speed improvements. Although I am the original author and maintainer, many of the bug fixes and improvements have come as either suggestions or patches from the perl community. The contributors names can be found near the end of the POD doc, and full credits can be found in the Changelog file. There have been many helpful people making this a much better module than I could ever write on my own. QUICK START GUIDE: Install rsync if you haven't already. Build/test/install File::Rsync perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Once installed you can use 'perldoc File::Rsync' to get the rest of the documentation. Or if you'd prefer to examine the docs before installation try 'perldoc -F Rsync.pm'. This module is an attempt to efficiently handle the possibly numerous arguments to the rsync command, and it's error conditions and messages.
