-The bf(*) is either bf(<) (receive), bf(>) (send), or bf(*) (--dry-run) if
-the item is being updated, otherwise it is a space.
-
-The bf(X) will be replaced by one of the following: an "f" for a file, a
-"d" for a dir, an "L" for a symlink, or a "D" for a device.
-
-The rest of the letters in the string above are the actual letters that
-will be output if the associated attribute for the item is being updated;
-otherwise the letter will be replaced by either a "." for no change, a "+"
-for a new item, or a "?" if the attribute is not known (which happens when
-talking to an older rsync). The meanings of the attribute letters are as
-follows:
-
-quote(itemize(
- it() A bf(c) means the checksum of the file is different and will be
- updated by the file transfer (requries bf(--checksum)).
- it() A bf(s) means the size of the file is different and will be updated
- by the file transfer.
- it() A bf(t) means the modified time is being updated to the server's
- value (requires --times). An alternate value of bf(T) means that the
- time is being set to the transfer time, which happens when symlinks are
- updated, or when a file or device is updated without --times.
- it() A bf(p) means the permissions are being updated (requires
- bf(--perms)).
- it() An bf(o) means the owner is being updated (requires bf(--owner) and
- root privileges).
- it() A bf(g) means the group is being updated (requires bf(--group)).
