rsync huge tar files

[Tim Conway]

If it is, as you say, uncompressed, rsync will work on it as-is, finding 
and sending the changes.

rsync huge tar files






Hi folks,

Are there any tricks known to let rsync operate on huge tar
files?

I've got a local tar file (e.g. 2GByte uncompressed) that is
rebuilt each night (with just some tiny changes, of course),
and I would like to update the remote copies of this file
without extracting the tar files into temporary directories.

Any ideas?


Regards

Harri
