So that permits people to deploy with exactly same content without having a moving target, as BaseOS/AppStream will be including updates as they land. WRT disk space, hopefully, as explained on how to mirror correctly (https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CreatePublicMirrors) , you use -H for rsync, as we heavily use hardlinks in our trees so that it reduces space and also used bandwidth to sync mirror content -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | twitter: @arrfab -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
