This patch from Antti Tapaninen added the --omit-dir-changes option, which
tells rsync to not affect any attributes on the directories in the transfer.
+To use this patch, run these commands for a successful build:
+
+ patch -p1 <patches/omit-dir-changes.diff
+ ./configure (optional if already run)
+ make
