Due to popular demand, we have enabled rsync at repo.saltstack.com. This will

make it easy to create a local SaltStack repo on your network and keep that in

sync with the latest and greatest from the official SaltStack repo.

The following command will show you the available rsync modules:

$ rsync rsync://repo.saltstack.com

saltstack_pkgrepo_full Contents of repo.saltstack.com

saltstack_pkgrepo_debian SaltStack Debian repo

saltstack_pkgrepo_ubuntu SaltStack Ubuntu repo

saltstack_pkgrepo_rhel SaltStack RHEL repo

saltstack_pkgrepo_freebsd SaltStack FreeBSD repo

saltstack_pkgrepo_opensuse SaltStack OpenSUSE repo

saltstack_pkgrepo_windows SaltStack Windows repo

saltstack_pkgrepo_osx SaltStack OS X repo

Here's an example command to clone the entire contents of repo.saltstack.com:

rsync -vaH --numeric-ids --delete --delete-after --delay-updates \ rsync://repo.saltstack.com/saltstack_pkgrepo_full ./fullrepo

Currently the full repo is about 9 gigs. If you only need the yum portion of

repo.saltstack.com then you can run this command:

rsync -vaH --numeric-ids --delete --delete-after --delay-updates \ sync://repo.saltstack.com/saltstack_pkgrepo_rhel ./salt_yum

Any of the other modules can be synced by modifying the above command with

rsync module you want.

Please let us know if you have any suggestions for improvement.

Thanks!
