[enhancement] Add support of netcat for initial replication #198

Closed Peter2121 closed 1 year ago

bbcp has gone from FreeBSD ports. The commonly used alternative is netcat nc which is the part of the base system. Please, add the support of nc, at least, for the initial synchronization.

erm... Seems like at least one of us is missing some information here :) last I heard, netcat is merely for opening a direct, nonencrypted TCP connection. bbcp is WAAAY more than that.

Also, this issue has come up before :)
