People also really should use rsync with the -H option for hardlinks as
that will save much space between releases as well.  (Almost all the
items in the 'cr' repo, 'os' repo, and 'fasttrack' repo from the
7.0.1406 tree will make up the new os repo in the newer 7.1.1503 tree.)

If you are not using -H, you have to download each RPM more than once.

rsync from $job is incredibly slow and unreliable and frequently errored out partway through the process. I switched to lftp some time ago but just realized that it wasn't handling symlinks properly (although all indications are that it should be). A possible complication may be that I just moved my local mirror from a old Solaris 10 system to a new FreeNAS (FreeBSD) system, and am using the lftp from freeBSD 9.3 'ports', whihc is lftp version 4.6.1. The old solaris system had LFTP 4.0.10
