Description

Need a zsync tool/utility that can download the incremental update vs the already-downloaded ISO.

> zsync allows you to download a file from a remote server, but by comparing with a local file it will only retrieve the newer parts, thereby minimizing the volume of your download.

This will hopefully speed up downloading coninuous builds significantly.

The zsync in FreeBSD cannot handle https and/or redirects properly, but my fork does, by utilizing libcurl: https://github.com/probonopd/zsync-curl/
