also will create hard links from em(DIR) to the destination directory for
unchanged files. Files with changed ownership or permissions will not be
linked.
+Like bf(--compare-dest) if DIR is a relative path, it is relative
+to the destination directory.
dit(bf(-z, --compress)) With this option, rsync compresses any data from
the files that it sends to the destination machine. This
it() if the pattern includes a double asterisk "**" then all wildcards in
the pattern will match slashes, otherwise they will stop at slashes.
- it() if the pattern contains a / (not counting a trailing /) then it

- that the algorithm is applied recursively so "full filename" can
