Quite a day for librsync;

I went through the process to import librsync (with revision history
from CVS) into git. Hopefully someone finds this useful:
https://github.com/pauloppenheim-liveloop/librsync

I have also released a fork which includes patches for a Windows build
using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008:
https://github.com/pauloppenheim-liveloop/librsync-winbuild

There appear to be a number of projects using librsync still:

Coincidentally, also released today, a fork by Dropbox (lacking proper
history / patchset export, sadly):
https://github.com/dropbox/librsync

so, thanks for the library!

Hi, Paul,

Thanks for doing a conversion and for posting. I had been thinking about
moving the official home to github and making a new release with whatever
patches can be merged.

Hi Martin,

You're welcome! I would be happy to add you as an owner or just
transfer the repo to your github account - it's your code after all!
Being a dvcs, there's also nothing stopping you from just taking this
import and moving it to sourceforge - or launchpad? I could also do a
different conversion with different username -> email mappings if you
prefer, i've got a working config now.

github is fine. No need to worry about ownership or the name mapping right
now - I will have a look later.

Hi Paul!

Quite a while since your message, but I finally got around to making a
`librsync` organization. If you would like to transfer your import across
to that organization, that would be great.
