Something that might be useful to add to the Tor mirror website...
Make sure you don't run `rsync` with the -C (--cvs-exclude) flag. I typically use this in all my rsync commands, to prevent syncing of junk files like backups (files matching patterns like *~, *.bak, &c.). It seems like an innocuous-enough flag to add, like -z or --bwlimit or the like.
Unfortunately, -C also excludes *.exe files, which meant my Tor mirror wasn't hosting any of the executables---and it was making my Tor mirror sporadically appear to be up, or down, depending on which file the mirror testing script checked.

If you don't want to run a mirror anymore, just tell us. Attached is the latest output from the mirror testing script.
The script has tagged the following mirrors as invalid for a while now:
