	      Config file to use (defaults to /etc/yum.conf).

       -a ARCH, --arch=ARCH
	      Act as if running the specified arch (default: current arch, note: does not override $releasever. x86_64 is a superset for i*86.).

       --source
	      Also download .src.rpm files.

       -r REPOID, --repoid=REPOID
	      Specify repo ids to query, can be specified multiple times (default is all enabled).

       -n, --newest-only
	      Download only newest packages per-repo.

       -q, --quiet
	      Output as little information as possible.

EXAMPLES

       Sync all packages from the 'updates' repo to the current directory:
	       reposync --repoid=updates

       Sync only the newest packages from the 'updates' repo to the current directory:
	       reposync -n --repoid=updates

       Sync packages from the 'updates' and 'extras' repos to the current directory:
	       reposync --repoid=updates --repoid=extras

       Sync all packages from the 'updates' repo to the repos directory:
	       reposync -p repos --repoid=updates

       Sync  all packages from the 'updates' repo to the repos directory excluding x86_64 arch. Edit /etc/yum.conf adding option exclude=*.x86_64.
       Then:
	      reposync -p repos --repoid=updates

FILES

       reposync uses the yum libraries for retrieving information and packages. If no configuration file is specified, the default yum	configura-
       tion will be used.
