I don't know what "Unknown module 'repositories'" means. Path? It yes, what would be the correct path?
Module is "something" in rsync parlance. I don't see a description in "man rsync", only usage.
man rsyncd.conf
Well, it explains how to create one, but does not say what a module is. At least I do not see it, because there are too many hits on the word.
It thinks that your command was trying to access a module on the remote server, but that module does not exist.
Istvan's invocation: rsync -av -n --include-from=filters.txt --prune-empty-dirs rsync://rsync.opensuse.org/repositories/ opensuse/repositories ^^^^^^^^^^^^
That is interpreted as the module.
To create a clone of some repos locally, I think it is best not to use rsync, but some normal download tool like wget. Runs faster.
Nah, use rsync, that is what all our mirrors use. It's the whole reason we provide rsync.opensuse.org for public use.
I tried once and I had to give up. IMO, use it to keep the mirror updated, but not for the initial population. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
