I have built my repo by copying the content of the ISO images,

When I test with:
rsync -avun rsync://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.1/os/i386/ \
--exclude=debug/ /repos/centos/5.1/os/i386
the only file listed is:
CentOS/yum-kernel-module-1.0.4-3.el5.centos.2.noarch.rpm
Which I did not get from the ISOs.
but if I leave off the -u option, the list is VERY long. Why?
Also do I need to use the --delete option to get rid of rpms replaced
with newer versions?
----
man rsync
-u, --update skip files that are newer on the receiver
it won't copy the files that are the same
And, so? Why all the files that are newer on the ISO than the mirror repo?
--delete yes
it deletes files that don't exist anymore on server
Figured so
heavily recommend dag's mrepo...it does all the heavy lifting for you
I tried to find decent documentation. All I found were a few text files
on http://svn.rpmforge.net/svn/trunk/tools/mrepo/docs
And I could not figure out how to run the repo from files and not the ISOs.
Perhaps you can point me to some good documentation on it?
