Hi
According to the mirror list
https://www.debian.org/distrib/archive
it should be possible to reach archive.debian.org via rsync, however
this fails for me. Is this intentional, or can this be fixed?
Further it seems mirrors are out of sync. I noticed that several
mirrors lack buster. According to timestamps on archive.debian.org
these directories were added on 2024-03-10 -- is it usual for mirror
delays to be this long?
Seeing mirror functionality being uncertain, I have started to track archive.debian.org as a Git-LFS repository on gitlab.com. Until rsync
access against archive.debian.org is operational, this is based on
mirror's content which may be stale. I hope to figure out which rsync
mirror has the latest version, and keep this updated going forward.

issues is mirrors@d.o, not debian-devel]

Can you be more specific as to which mirrors you're talking about?
I'd also be interested as to why you feel you need to use a mirror
rather than simply archive.debian.org itself.

speaking of mirroring problematic debian.org services [1] by adding more copies
of terabytes of data [2]: is there an update of the situation regarding snapshot.d.o? I do not see any activity in bugs like #1050815 and #1029744. And
bug #1031628 was just closed as wont-fix.
