Summary : Rsync remote-delta algorithm library
URL : https://librsync.github.io/
License : LGPL-2.1-or-later
Description : librsync is a library for calculating and applying network deltas, with an
: interface designed to ease integration into diverse network applications.
:
: librsync encapsulates the core algorithms of the rsync protocol, which help
: with efficient calculation of the differences between two files. The rsync
: algorithm is different from most differencing algorithms because it does not
: require the presence of the two files to calculate the delta. Instead, it
: requires a set of checksums of each block of one file, which together form a
: signature for that file. Blocks at any in the other file which have the same
: checksum are likely to be identical, and whatever remains is the difference.
