%description
-Rsync uses a reliable algorithm to bring remote and host files into
-sync very quickly. Rsync is fast because it just sends the differences
-in the files over the network instead of sending the complete
-files. Rsync is often used as a very powerful mirroring process or
-just as a more capable replacement for the rcp command. A technical
-report which describes the rsync algorithm is included in this
-package.
+Rsync is a fast and extraordinarily versatile file copying tool. It can
+copy locally, to/from another host over any remote shell, or to/from a
+remote rsync daemon. It offers a large number of options that control
+every aspect of its behavior and permit very flexible specification of the
+set of files to be copied. It is famous for its delta-transfer algorithm,
+which reduces the amount of data sent over the network by sending only the
+differences between the source files and the existing files in the
+destination. Rsync is widely used for backups and mirroring and as an
+improved copy command for everyday use.
