/usr/share/doc/rsync/copyright:

This is Debian's prepackaged version of Andrew Tridgell and
Paul Mackerras' rsync utility.

This package provides the rsync program, which is a replacement
for rcp that uses the rsync algorythm to transfer only the
differences between two sets of files.

This package was put together by Philip Hands <phil@xxxxxxxxx>,
from sources obtained from:
http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.5.4.tar.gz
The current version was downloaded from:
http://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/rsync-2.6.5.tar.gz
on 2005-06-03 by Paul Slootman <paul@xxxxxxxxxx> .

The changes were very minimal - merely adding support for the Debian
package maintenance scheme, by adding various debian/* files, and
tweaking the Makefile.in to allow the install prefix to be changed.
The manpages also have quoting and hyphens fixed.
