Re: [Libguestfs] Libguestfs Rsync-in with delta transfer enabled

Hi, I am exploring libguestfs rsync-in to copy the incremental changes to qcow2. I am following rsync example to use the rsync-in. As per the example, I am using rsync daemon and rysnc-in is working for me. But, If the changes are in the same file then the complete file is getting transferred. For example, if my file is of 100Mi then the first qcow2 is of approx 105Mi. After the first qcow2, I am appending data of 20Mi and then creating the second qcow2 using the first qcow2 as a backing file. Here then the second qcow2 should have been around approx 22Mi but it's showing 125Mi in qemu-img info. From the above observation, I think the delta transfer algorithm is not getting used while doing rsync-in. Just out of curiosity, I tried adding arg --no-whole-file in this function but it's still not working. Can anyone please point me to how to enable the delta transfer algorithm? Is it already supported ? or Do I need to make changes in the code? If yes, then please let me know the places where I should add the changes.
