...ne could use this feature. Mode of use: something like rsync --tar /filesystem/image/file.tar target/file/system this would not copy file.tar but would act like file.tar was unpacked in the source directory. As places to modify, I identified the send_file_list function (and, going from there, send_uid_list) and the send_files functions. I plan to look at the implementation of the --files-from option, at least for the implementation of send_file_list: just fetch the list of files from that tar file instead of a file. libtar would be used to access the tar file. Perhaps somebody has tried to do...

I'm in the midst of coding a patch set for consideration that will bump the protocol version and have a couple of observations. The current minimum backwards-compatible protocol is 15 but we have code that checks for protocol versions as old as 12. If someone else doesn't beat me to it i'm considering cleaning out the pre-15 compatibility code. A backwards compatibility patch could
