✨ RETRACE-SERVER-REP(1) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Retrace Server Manual 💖 this one's about retrace-server-reposync and honestly? it's giving "quiet little workhorse" and we respect her for it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

retrace-server-reposync</purl> — keeps a local repository cache alive for the Retrace server, no cap 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

retrace-server-reposync distribution version architecture

like. that's it. three little args and she's off doing her thing ✨

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

so what does she actually do? she downloads new packages from public repositories into a local repository cache 🍓 that's the whole gig, and she eats every single time 🔥

now — a proper plugin for every distribution needs to be installed in the plugins directory, which by default lives at:

/usr/share/retrace-server/plugins

no plugin, no packages, iykyk 🙈</purl>

and the vibe check on scheduling: you should set her up in root's crontab or retrace's crontab, running every single day ⭐ she's a daily girlie. consistency is her whole personality.
