<title>Getting The Source Via <productname>rsync</productname></title>
<para>
An alternative to using anonymous CVS for retrieving the
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> source tree is
<productname>rsync</productname>, an incremental file transfer tool.
A major advantage to using <productname>rsync</productname> is that it
can reliably replicate the <emphasis>entire</emphasis> CVS repository
on your local system, allowing fast local access to <command>cvs</>
operations such as <option>log</option> and <option>diff</option>.
Other advantages include fast synchronization to the
<productname>PostgreSQL</productname> server due to an efficient
streaming transfer protocol which only sends the changes since the last
update.

You can download the CVS repository using this command:
<programlisting>
rsync -avzCH --delete rsync.postgresql.org::pgsql-cvs cvsroot/
</programlisting>
