1 Hi,

3 I'm planning on substituting every "emerge rsync" I can find in the docs to
4 "emerge sync". Is there *any* reason why I should not do it?
5
6 AFAIK is Portage 2.0.47-r10 stable on all supported architectures and
7 2.0.47-r10 has /usr/bin/emerge with "sync" being the same as "rsync":

10 if x[2:]=="rsync":
11 #print

13 #print red("*** Please use '--sync' instead.")
14 x="--sync"
15 [...]
16 if x=="rsync":
17 #print red("*** Please use '--sync' instead.")
18 x="sync"
19 [...]
20 if myaction in ["sync","rsync"] and (not "--help" in myopts):
