Description:
rsync is a replacement for rcp that has many more features. rsync uses the "rsync algorithm" which provides a very fast method for bringing remote files into sync. It does this by sending just the differences in the files across the link, without requiring that both sets of files are present at one of the ends of the link beforehand. This makes rsync a good remote file distribution/synchronization utility in a dialup PPP/SLIP environment. Note, requires rsync on the destination machine. There is a Computer Science Technical Report on the rsync algorithm is included in the distribution, and is available as ftp://samba.anu.edu.au/pub/rsync/tech_report.ps

*/*: PORTREVISION++ on some @sample-using ports

The handling of @sample with regard to no-root installation was
recently fixed, by 452309533805 (in ports) plus changes in pkg 2.4.
These need new packages built before they will correctly install,
including into VM images generated as part of the FreeBSD release
process.

Unfortunately with the release scheduled for just a few weeks away
and generally slow arm64 package building, there isn't time for a
full pkg set rebuild; so bump a handful of ports which are used in
the release process so that they will be rebuilt.

Users who are not building VM images using the "no-root" pathway
(aka using a METALOG index of the disk image) are not affected by
this; we doubt anyone other than re@ will notice.

MFC note:	emulators/qemu, security/sudo, and security_ca_root_nss
		had different versions in 2025Q4 than in main, so the
		PORTREVISION-bumping patch did not directly apply.
With hat:	re@
Discussed with:	bapt, antoine

(cherry picked from commit f5f42750a3722858fb976a47fbe320d7952b7c09)
