It is also legal to specify multiple bf(--chmod) options, as each
additional option is just appended to the list of changes to make.
+To change permissions of files matching a pattern, use an include filter with
+the bf(m) modifier, which takes effect before any bf(--chmod) options.
See the bf(--perms) and bf(--executability) options for how the resulting
permission value can be applied to the files in the transfer.
If you specify "--chown=foo:bar, this is exactly the same as specifying
"--usermap=*:foo --groupmap=*:bar", only easier.
+To change ownership of files matching a pattern, use an include filter with
+the bf(o) and bf(g) modifiers, which take effect before uid/gid mapping and
+therefore em(can) be mixed with bf(--usermap) and bf(--groupmap).

dit(bf(--timeout=TIMEOUT)) This option allows you to set a maximum I/O
timeout in seconds. If no data is transferred for the specified time
then rsync will exit. The default is 0, which means no timeout.
option's default rules that exclude things like "CVS" and "*.o" are
marked as perishable, and will not prevent a directory that was removed
on the source from being deleted on the destination.
+ it() An bf(m+nop()(CHMOD)) on an include rule tweaks the permissions of matching
+ source files in the same way as bf(--chmod). This happens before any
+ tweaks requested via bf(--chmod) options.
+ it() An bf(o+nop()(USER)) on an include rule pretends that matching source files
+ are owned by bf(USER) (a name or numeric uid). This happens before any uid
+ mapping by name or bf(--usermap).
+ it() A bf(g+nop()(GROUP)) on an include rule pretends that matching source files
+ are owned by bf(GROUP) (a name or numeric gid). This happens before any gid
+ mapping by name or bf(--groupmap).

a rule prefix such as bf(hide)).
)
+The attribute-affecting modifiers bf(m), bf(o), and bf(g) work only in client
+filters (not in daemon filters), and only the modifiers of the first matching
+rule are applied. As an example, assuming bf(--super) is enabled, the
+rule "+o+nop()(root)g+nop()(root)m+nop()(go=) *~" would ensure that all "backup" files belong to
+root and are not accessible to anyone else.

Per-directory rules are inherited in all subdirectories of the directory
where the merge-file was found unless the 'n' modifier was used. Each
subdirectory's rules are prefixed to the inherited per-directory rules
