Not as such. However I intend to produce a list of images per project
blah blah (some handwaving here) with the date of last upload, and
excerpts from this could be used as input to rsync.

Does rsync mirror allow to download Commons images by
date? I mean, in
day-by-day packages. That was the method we wanted to use at WikiTeam
to archive Wikimedia Commons.

That's not too hard to do. You just copy the image tree with
hardlinks,
making a version. Then the next rsync will only
replace
modified images.
(Unless you manually added the --inplace
parameter, but in
such case you
supposedly know what you're doing)
You could also use --link-dest instead of manaully building
hardlink
copies.
Yes, that would work fine under the existing setup; what I
don't know
and what needs to be figured out is what we will do when
images are
moved into swift, Real Soon Now.
