## Historique du projet et usages
librsync packages the rsync remote-delta idea as a reusable C library and the rdiff command-line tool. It is historically tied to efficient file transfer, backup, and binary-patch workflows rather than to the rsync network protocol itself.
### Historique du projet
The project README credits Martin Pool and contributors from 1999 onward and says librsync was originally written for rproxy, an experiment in delta-compression for HTTP. The library exposes the core signature, delta, and patch operations so other programs can compute and apply network deltas without embedding the rsync protocol.
The modern GitHub release series shows 1.0.0 and 2.0.0 releases in 2015, with later 2.x releases continuing the library and rdiff tool as a small, reusable delta-compression component.
### Historique d'adoption
The official README lists Dropbox, rdiff-backup, Duplicity, and others as users. That adoption pattern explains librsync's packaging footprint: backup and synchronization tools depend on the library behavior while presenting their own network, metadata, and policy layers.
### Modes d'utilisation
Library users generate a signature of an old file, compute a delta against a new file, and apply that delta with the old file to reproduce the new file. The rdiff executable exposes the same operations for shell pipelines and package-maintainer tests.
### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent
librsync is a good example of a package that is not the famous program named in the algorithm. It deliberately does not implement the rsync wire protocol, file metadata handling, SSH transport, or directory synchronization; it packages the transferable delta primitive that higher-level tools build around.
### Chronologie
- 1999: Martin Pool and contributors began the code line credited in the project README.
- 2015: Version 1.0.0 was published in January and version 2.0.0 was published in November.
- 2017: Version 2.0.1 continued the post-2.0 release series.
- 2020: Version 2.3.0 was published in April.
- 2023: Version 2.3.4 was published in February.
