Reopen Issue

casync is like a new and better rsync for directory trees, binary files and system images. It can speed up downloads if the user already has a similar image on his local machine.

For example if a user already has fedora 26 and he wants to download fedora 27 he can use fedora 26 as local seed and download only differences using casync. The same applies if he has fedora workstation and he wants to download fedora server.

All you need is to provide a .caibx index file for each image and a (global) .castr object storage on the fedora ftp mirrors. (You can generate them using casync).

I think this ticket should be refiled against release engineering.
They would need to decide if they want to generate them and publish them.

Thats: https://pagure.io/releng/issues/

If releng wants to do this, they can adjust their tools to generate the files.

Thanks!
