Spec URL: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Hubbitus/Fedora-packaging/fe64b31daa76420a8bede692399a8719bfd976ec/SPECS/bfsync.spec SRPM URL: http://hubbitus.info/rpm/Fedora20/bfsync/bfsync-0.3.6-1.src.rpm Description: Bfsync is a file-synchronization tool which allows to keep a collection of big files synchronized on many machines. To do this, bfsync maintains a global and local history of changes; every time the file collection is changed on one machine, an entry in the local history is made. Bfsync allows to automatically merge this local history with the global history where possible, and offers manual conflict resolution in cases where this is not possible. Due to history synchronization, each bfsync checkout knows precisely which files are part of the file collection. Therefore, it can determine which file contents (data blobs with SHA1 contents) are present in a checked out repo, and which are missing. The user can transfer file contents between repos using bfsync get/put, so that after transfer, the checkouts will be complete (containing both: the history and the file contents required). To sum it up, bfsync behaves not unlike version control systems like git or svn, however it behaves reasonable when the file collection is big (like hundreds of gigabytes). The main interface to bfsync is a FuSE filesystem, so it is possible to manage your data with a file manager or copy new data into the repository using rsync. As soon as you "commit" the changes, they are entered into the local history and if you "push/pull" the changes, they become part of the global history. There is no need to transfer all new data to a central server during "push/pull". Only the history needs to be transferred, the contents of the files can be exchanged between different machines without need for a central server (although you can have a central server containing all data if its practical for you).

This is an automatic check from review-stats script. This review request ticket hasn't been updated for some time. We're sorry it is taking so long. If you're still interested in packaging this software into Fedora repositories, please respond to this comment clearing the NEEDINFO flag. You may want to update the specfile and the src.rpm to the latest version available and to propose a review swap on Fedora devel mailing list to increase chances to have your package reviewed. If this is your first package and you need a sponsor, you may want to post some informal reviews. Read more at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group. Without any reply, this request will shortly be considered abandoned and will be closed. Thank you for your patience.
