crypto tool that generates rsync-able encrypted files: msg#00160

Subject: crypto tool that generates rsync-able encrypted files

No meaningful documentation yet; but might be interesting for backuppc or
its users in some way, shape, or form in the future.
by the look of the description, it's not an /rsync/ tool per se; but rather
a weak encryption scheme that allows encrypted files to be sync'ed
efficiently.

About:
Rsyncrypto allows you to encrypt a file or a directory structure such that
they can later be synchronized to another machine using rsync. This means
that local changes to the plain text file result in local changes to the
cipher text file. rsyncrypto compresses the plain text file prior to
encrypting it with gzip using the "rsyncable" patch, which is available from
the rsync sources.
