Drsync is a wrapper for rsync. It does track if you add or remove files in your repository, and add it or remove it in the remote place also.
It is ideal e.g. for notebook users, who want to keep their data in two different place for safe, and want to work with the two (or more) different repositories also.
It is also good for the upcoming Linux PDA-s (Agenda, iPAQ, etc) for keeping data synchronized.
The simplest way to install it if you run install.pl.
If it fails, then you must adjust the paths in the script, and try it again, or do it manually. The script requires Getopt::Mixed, which is included in the tar file, but you also can install it from CPAN.
File::Copy module is part of the perl distribution, it may came with your perl distribution, but if not, you must get this from CPAN.
