--sockopts=OPTIONS specify custom TCP options
--blocking-io use blocking I/O for the remote shell
--stats give some file-transfer stats
- -8, --8-bit leave high-bit chars unescaped in output
+ -8, --8-bit-output leave high-bit chars unescaped in output
-h, --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
on the file transfer, allowing you to tell how effective the rsync
algorithm is for your data.
-dit(bf(-8, --8-bit)) This tells rsync to leave all high-bit characters
+dit(bf(-8, --8-bit-output)) This tells rsync to leave all high-bit characters
unescaped in the output instead of trying to test them to see if they're
valid in the current locale and escaping the invalid ones. All control
characters (but never tabs) are always escaped, regardless of this option's
escaped unless it is followed by a hash and 3 digits (0-9).
dit(bf(-h, --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.
+This makes big numbers output using larger units, with a K, M, or G suffix. If
+this option was specified once, these units are K (1000), M (1000*1000), and
+G (1000*1000*1000); if the option is repeated, the units are powers of 1024
+instead of 1000.
dit(bf(--partial)) By default, rsync will delete any partially
transferred file if the transfer is interrupted. In some circumstances
