+dit(bf(--min-size=SIZE)) This tells rsync to avoid transferring any
+file that is smaller than the specified SIZE, which can help in not
+transferring small, junk files.
+See the bf(--max-size) option for a description of SIZE.

 dit(bf(-B, --block-size=BLOCKSIZE)) This forces the block size used in
 the rsync algorithm to a fixed value.  It is normally selected based on
 the size of each file being updated.  See the technical report for details.
