Mirroring Haiku depot

Can I use rsync to mirror haiku depot at https://eu.hpkg.haiku-os.org/haikuports/r1beta3/x86_64?
If it doesn’t allow rsync, can I download all of the packages via HTTP, automatically using some program, at a limited speed ~1MB/s, to avoid abusing the bandwidth resouce of your server?
I’m afraid that excessive large-traffic downloads will take down the server.

There is a P2P-mirroring experiment going on right now-- if you install IPFS and regularly “pin” /ipns/hpkg.haiku-os.org, then you can mirror install images and packages for anyone that uses IPFS or the public gateway.

No worries this way :slight_smile:
