rsync suggestion

rsync suggestion

[Brian Murphy]

Is there any chance, Ralf, of an rsync server for the kernel cvs?
This  really speeds up making diffs and so on and removes load
from the central cvs server.

Anyone else like the idea?

I like it.  But I don't count, so there's not much point in it...

Load is hardly an argument.  The machine has 2GB of memory so can keep the
entire CVS archive in memory which extremly speeds up operation.  Anyway,
I rsync of the cvs archive was disabled from the time that the archive
was just an outdated copy of oss; now I re-enabled it.
