If only reposync had an inbuilt wget: that it can resume a big file from
till where it was done. It would be so helpful for us who work over slow
connections to the Net like 32kbps. Just now I got up from sleep and
this was the output in the reposync window, the last few lines:

So, this is the sixth time it is downloading the same
file .nexuiz-data-2.3-2.fc7.noa The biggest one was the fourth one: 178
MB. Every time it is starting afresh. Can wget be used like that with
reposync?
