><P
>   An alternative to using anonymous CVS for retrieving the
   <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> source tree is
   <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>rsync</SPAN
>, an incremental file transfer tool.
   A major advantage to using <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>rsync</SPAN
> is that it
   can reliably replicate the <SPAN
CLASS="emphasis"
><I
CLASS="EMPHASIS"
>entire</I
></SPAN
> CVS repository
   on your local system, allowing fast local access to <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>cvs</TT
>
   operations such as <TT
CLASS="OPTION"
>log</TT
> and <TT
CLASS="OPTION"
>diff</TT
>.
   Other advantages include fast synchronization to the
   <SPAN
CLASS="PRODUCTNAME"
>PostgreSQL</SPAN
> server due to an efficient
   streaming transfer protocol which only sends the changes since the last
   update.
