Summary: Content Addressable Data Synchronization Tool
casync provides a way to efficiently transfer files which change over
time over the Internet. It will split a given set into a git-inspired
content-addressable set of smaller compressed chunks, which can then
be conveniently transferred using HTTP. On the receiving side, these
chunks will be uncompressed and merged together to recreate the
original data. When the original data is modified, only the new chunks
have to be transferred during an update.

  - add missing group
  - run spec-cleaner
* Sun Sep 17 2017 sebix+novell.com@sebix.at
  - update to version 2
    * casync now supports retrieving index and chunk data from sftp:// URLs. (In
    addition to the existing ftp://, http:// and https:// support).
    * casync will now honour $TMP if it is set, for placing temporary files and
    directories.
    * casync now saves/restores basic btrfs subvolume information. (Specifically it
    will store whether a directory is a subvolume, and whether it has the
    read-only bit set.) Control this metadata option with the new
    - -with=subvolume/--without=subvolume and
    - -with=subvolume-ro/--without=subvolume-ro switches.
    * casync now saves/restores SELinux label information. Control this metadata
    option with the new --with=selinux/--without=selinux switches.
    * The libgcrypt dependency has been replaced with an OpenSSL dependency, as
    that appears to be better supported today, and may be used to generate
    SHA512/256 hashes (see below).
    * casync now permits selecting the hash function to use with the new --digest=
    option. SHA512/256 is now supported in addition to the old SHA256 algorithm,
    which continues to be supported. The new default however is SHA512/256, as it
    is substantially faster at otherwise equal properties on today's 64bit
    processors. In specific environments SHA256 might perform better, hence both
    algorithms remain supported. Index files contain information about the hash
    algorithm used, hence automatic compatibility is retained.
    * casync now permits selecting the compression format to use with the new
    option --compression=. In addition to the originally reported xz compression,
    gzip and zstd compression are now supported, the latter being the new default
    as it provides excellent compression at very high speeds. It's OK to mix
    chunks compressed with different algorithms in the same store, but of course
    clients downloading them need to be new enough to read chunks in non-xz
    formats. Note that the file suffix for compressed chunks changed ".xz" →
    ".cacnk", as they now may contain either compression, and continuing to use
    the ".xz" suffix would be misleading. To retain compatibility with older
    casync, the environment variable $CASYNC_COMPRESSED_CHUNK_SUFFIX may be set
    to ".xz", to force usage of the old suffix.
    * When extracting archives or archive indexes a subset of the metadata stored
    in the archive may now be selected to be replayed, using the usual --with=
    and --without= options. For example, if an archive containing full metadata
    is extracted with --without=privileged only the unprivileged metadata fields
    are extracted (i.e. no file ownership, ACLs, SELinux labels, ...).
    * After completing an operation statistics about downloaded chunks are now
    shown.
    * When invoking "casync mkdev" the third parameter may now be an arbitrarily
    selected path below /dev which is then created as a symlink to the block
    device used, and registered with udev. This means the usual device
    enumeration will find the block device under the name picked. Example:
      [#] casync mkdev /somepath/tomy/index-file.caibx /dev/quux
    This will expose the block image /somepath/tomy/index-file.caibx as /dev/quux.
