More or less; the files are divided into blocks that are compared between the two
locations. There is an academic paper somewhere describing the algorithm that
you can find with Google. Usually you run it over ssh to the remote machine, so the
transfer is encrypted, too, and you can dispense with passwords if you have your
ssh keys set up (this allows running unattended with a script, e.g.).
