Not with built-in commands, but a sript could be written that determines
which files need updating, runs diff on each one, and sends and applies
the differences, at least when the two computers have compatible diff
programs. However, I don't see what the advantage over rsync would be,
unless you are looking at computers or connection types where it is
not available.
