-D, --devices preserve devices (root only)
-t, --times preserve times
-O, --omit-dir-times omit directories when preserving times
+ --chmod=CHMOD change destination permissions
-S, --sparse handle sparse files efficiently
-n, --dry-run show what would have been transferred
-W, --whole-file copy files whole (without rsync algorithm)
--copy-dest=DIR ... and include copies of unchanged files
--link-dest=DIR hardlink to files in DIR when unchanged
-z, --compress compress file data during the transfer
+ --compress-level=NUM explicitly set compression level
-C, --cvs-exclude auto-ignore files in the same way CVS does

--blocking-io use blocking I/O for the remote shell
--stats give some file-transfer stats
+ -m, --human-readable output numbers in a human-readable format
+ --si like human-readable, but use powers of 1000
--progress show progress during transfer
-P same as --partial --progress
-i, --itemize-changes output a change-summary for all updates
the directories on the receiving side, it is a good idea to use bf(-O).
This option is inferred if you use bf(--backup) without bf(--backup-dir).
+dit(bf(--chmod)) This options tells rsync to apply the listed "chmod" pattern
+to the permission of the files on the destination. In addition to the normal
+parsing rules specified in the chmod manpage, you can specify an item that
+should only apply to a directory by prefixing it with a 'D', or specify an
+item that should only apply to a file by prefixing it with a 'F'. For example:
+
+quote(--chmod=Dg+s,ug+w,Fo-w,+X)
+
dit(bf(-n, --dry-run)) This tells rsync to not do any file transfers,
instead it will just report the actions it would have taken.
because it takes advantage of the implicit information in the matching data
blocks that are not explicitly sent over the connection.
+dit(bf(--compress-level=NUM)) Explicitly set the compression level to use
+(see bf(--compress)) instead of letting it default. If NUM is non-zero,
+the bf(--compress) option is implied.
+
dit(bf(--numeric-ids)) With this option rsync will transfer numeric group
and user IDs rather than using user and group names and mapping them
at both ends.
on the file transfer, allowing you to tell how effective the rsync
algorithm is for your data.
+dit(bf(-m, --human-readable)) Output numbers in a more human-readable format.
+Large numbers may be output in larger units, with a K (1024), M (1024*1024),
+or G (1024*1024*1024) suffix.
+
+dit(bf(--si)) Similar to the bf(--human-readable) option, but using powers
+of 1000 instead of 1024.
+
dit(bf(--partial)) By default, rsync will delete any partially
transferred file if the transfer is interrupted. In some circumstances
it is more desirable to keep partially transferred files. Using the
