runmirrors.mirror(5) β€” bestie, it's the downstream mirror list πŸ’…

okay so this is the manual page for runmirrors.mirror, and it's giving downstream mirror list for runmirrors. We're in the ftpsync cinematic universe. Let's get into it. ✨


✨ NAME ✨

  • runmirrors.mirror β€” Downstream mirror list for runmirrors. That's the whole name vibe. πŸŽ€

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

Okay so ftpsync is part of the ftpsync suite for mirroring Debian and Debian-like repositories of packages. 🫢

There are, like, way too many mirrors of Debian to populate them all from the machine that generates the archive β€” and that machine is called β€œftp-master” (yes, quotes included, iconic). So instead, mirrors are organized in a tree-shaped hierarchy. 🌳

So the way it works: every mirror has exactly one upstream from which it syncs, and each mirror can have any number of downstreams which in turn sync from it. No cap. Periodt. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

Nothing here, bestie. The original OPTIONS section is empty β€” no flags, no values, no defaults, no secret menu. It's just vibes and blank space. πŸ™ˆ
