+dit(bf(--iconv=CONVERT_SPEC)) Rsync can convert filenames between character
+sets using this option. Using a CONVERT_SPEC of "." tells rsync to look up
+the default character-set via the locale setting. Alternately, you can
+fully specify what conversion to do by giving a local and a remote charset
+separated by a comma (local first), e.g. bf(--iconv=utf8,iso88591).
+Finally, you can specify a CONVERT_SPEC of "-" to turn off any conversion.
+The default setting of this option is site-specific, and can also be
+affected via the RSYNC_ICONV environment variable.
+
+Note that rsync does not do any conversion of names in filter files
+(including include/exclude files), in a files-from file, nor those
+specified on the command line. It is up to you to ensure that you're
+requesting the right names from a remote server, and you can specify
+extra include/exclude rules if there are filename differences on the
+two sides that need to be accounted for. (In the future there may be
+a way to specify a UTF-8 filter rule that gets auto-converted to the
+local side's character set.)
