Description

dirsyncR keeps two directories upto date so the contents are identical (within the resolution of the update interval).

Why should I use it instead of rsync?

The main reason of course is that it's written in go and open source so you can modify it to suit your needs. While rsync is very powerful, the list of options is several pages long and intimidating to new users.

How does it work?
