i plan to package openrsync this weekend in alpine as an alternative to rsync (and probably switch the default rsync implementation in future)

yes, this is because our entire infrastructure is built on rsync, which is now being vibe coded, and that seems like a problem

i honestly do not know how i feel entirely about vibe coding? i think it is cool that people can theoretically get any program they want at any time.

but that's theory.

in practice, the code the tools generate has a tendency to be unreliable and frequently also has security issues.

and rsync is being vibecoded by just tridge without any supervision.

i think at the very least, you need someone else to review the code which has been generated. there is too much self-confirmation bias otherwise.
