Rsync access to RePEc data

Rsync is the quickest way to get RePEc data. As to the format, you have choices.

type	example
ReDIF data	rsync -va --delete rsync://rsync.repec.org/RePEc-ReDIF/ RePEc
RePEc AMF	rsync -va --delete --exclude .oai rsync://rsync.repec.org/RePEc-AMF/ RePEc
CitEc AMF	rsync -va --delete rsync://rsync.repec.org/CitEc-AMF/ RePEc
RePEc OAI-DC	rsync -va --delete --exclude .oai rsync://rsync.repec.org/RePEc-OAI-DC/ RePEc

We also have some data that is derived from RePEc

data	example
ArchEc vault	rsync -av rsync://archec.repec.org/vault/ vault
ArchEc plind	rsync -av rsync://archec.repec.org/plind/ plind
ArchEc drift	rsync -av rsync://archec.repec.org/drift/ drift
CollEc centrality	rsync -av rsync://collec.repec.org/centrality/ centrality
Legacy CollEc paths	rsync -va --exclude inter --exclude notes rsync://legacy.collec.repec.org/paths/ paths

All examples above assume

• access a shell;
• rsync is installed;
• there is a directory, named as in the last part of the command-line argument.
