question about librsync : patch function

[NGUYEN, Laurent (ext.)]

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.

- Do you know if there is a "librsync mailing list" ? So I will apply my question there

- Have you already use this library ?
For my part I used it, and to generate the new synchronized file, I had to copy (fread) all the delta file into an input memory buffer (input for the library), so as to get the library working.
That means I have to buffer all the delta file into the memory.
Were you able to cut the delta file into several pieces to feed to the library ? For my part I was unable to do it.

 
BR,
Laurent

While this isn't the librsync mailing list, I do know that the basic 
librsync tools (and indeed, the library itself) only support creating a 
new file, not merging changes into an existing file.
