Pysync is a Python-based project that offers an implementation of rsync and associated algorithms. It enables users to synchronize data within and between devices securely and efficiently.
While the pure Python implementation is not as fast or optimized, it certainly does work and provides a straightforward implementation of the algorithm for reference and experimentation. Moreover, it features a blend of ideas taken from librsync, xdelta, and rsync, giving users a powerful tool to work with.
On the other hand, the librsync Python extension is less flexible and somewhat harder to understand. However, it is known for being incredibly fast and can work wonders for users who require a quick and efficient solution.
In the latest release, the README has been updated to remove references to librsync patches as the version 0.9.6 is now available. The release also comes with minor cleanups for improved user experience. Additionally, the NEWS and TODO sections have been made to look more attractive, making it an even better choice for developers.
