rsync-time-backup - Time Machine style backup with rsync.

•    Shell

This script offers Time Machine-style backup using rsync. It creates incremental backups of files and directories to the destination of your choice. The backups are structured in a way that makes it easy to recover any file at any point in time. It works on Linux, macOS and Windows (via WSL or Cygwin). The main advantage over Time Machine is the flexibility as it can backup from/to any filesystem and works on any platform. You can also backup, for example, to a Truecrypt drive without any problem.

docker-osx-dev - A productive development environment with Docker on OS X

•    Shell

As of March 4, 2018, this project is no longer actively maintained. The Docker for Mac app has made significant improvements in terms of mounted volume performance and file watching, so docker-osx-dev is no longer necessary. I tried many different solutions (see Alternatives) that didn't work until I finally stumbled across one that does: rsync. With rsync, build and compilation performance in mounted folders is on par with native OS X performance and standard file watching mechanisms work properly too. However, setting it up correctly is a painful process that involves many steps, so to make life easier, I've packaged this process up in this docker-osx-dev project.

rsnapshot - a tool for backing up your data using rsync (if you want to get help, use https://lists

•    Perl

rsnapshot comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY. This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain conditions. See the GNU General Public Licence for details. rsnapshot is a filesystem snapshot utility based on rsync. rsnapshot makes it easy to make periodic snapshots of local machines, and remote machines over ssh. The code makes extensive use of hard links whenever possible, to greatly reduce the disk space required.

librsync -- network-delta library

•    C

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.

mainframer - Tool for remote builds. Sync project to remote machine, execute command, sync back.

•    Shell

Tool that allows you to move build process from a local machine to a remote one.Remote machine ought to be much faster than a laptop.

sshync - Auto-sync files or directories over SSH.

•    Javascript

Auto-sync files or directories over SSH using rsync and fs.watch(). Exclude files or directories by creating .sshyncignore in your source root (see repo root for example).

duplicity - Encrypted bandwidth-efficient backup using the rsync algorithm

•    Python

Duplicity backs directories by producing encrypted tar-format volumes and uploading them to a remote or local file server. Because duplicity uses librsync, the incremental archives are space efficient and only record the parts of files that have changed since the last backup. Because duplicity uses GnuPG to encrypt and/or sign these archives, they will be safe from spying and/or modification by the server.

ksync - Sync files between your local system and a kubernetes cluster.

•    Go

ksync speeds up developers who build applications for Kubernetes. It transparently updates containers running on the cluster from your local checkout. This enables developers to use their favorite IDEs, such as Atom or Sublime Text to work from inside a cluster instead of from outside it. There is no reason to wait minutes to test code changes when you can see the results in seconds. You can also download the latest release and install it yourself.

go-sync - gosync is a library for Golang styled around zsync / rsync, written with the intent that it enables efficient differential file transfer in a number of ways

•    Go

The ZSync mechanism has the weakness that HTTP1.1 ranged requests are not always well supported by CDN providers and ISP proxies. When issues happen, they're very difficult to respond to correctly in software (if possible at all). Using HTTP 1.0 and fully completed GET requests would be better, if possible. There are some other issues too - ZSync doesn't (as far as I'm aware) solve any issues to do with storage of a files, which can get more and more onerous for large files that are not changing much from one version to another.

autorsync - Node.js File Watch + rsync

•    Javascript

Watch directories for changes and update remote directories with rsync. Directories are monitored with fs.watch from Node.js.rsync is a file transfer program for Unix systems. rsync uses the 'rsync algorithm' which provides a very fast method for bringing remote files into sync. rsync works unidirectional. If you are looking for a two-way-sync have a look at unison. autorsync could easily be ported to be used with unison.
