R help - Mar 2003 - rsync

Hola!

I am now downloading r-devel to compile it on windows XP. The CRAN
source code page says "you will prefere to use rsync". I am googling 
around, and cannot find anything about rsync on windows. 

Anybody has any experience with rsync on windows?

You can use rsync on Windows via the Cygwin toolset (see
www.cygwin.com).  

I've also seen an rsync for windows written in Python, but haven't
tried it.

Hi,

Perhaps have a look at 
http://optics.ph.unimelb.edu.au/help/rsync/rsync_pc1.html "Installing 
rsync on a Windows machine"?

FYI, I did a google search on "Using rsync on Windows" and found it.
