--include-from=FILE don't exclude patterns listed in FILE
--version print version number
--daemon run as a rsync daemon
+ --address bind to the specified address
--config=FILE specify alternate rsyncd.conf file
--port=PORT specify alternate rsyncd port number
--stats give some file transfer stats
already the same length and have the same time-stamp. This option turns
off this behavior.
-dit(bf(-I, --size-only)) Normally rsync will skip any files that are
+dit(bf(--size-only)) Normally rsync will skip any files that are
already the same length and have the same time-stamp. With the
--size-only option files will be skipped if they have the same size,
regardless of timestamp. This is useful when starting to use rsync
receiving side that are not on the sending side, this tells rsync to also
delete any files on the receiving side that are excluded (see --exclude).
+dit(bf(--delete-after)) By default rsync does file deletions before
+transferring files to try to ensure that there is sufficient space on
+the receiving filesystem. If you want to delete after transferring
+then use the --delete-after switch.
+
dit(bf(--force)) This options tells rsync to delete directories even if
they are not empty. This applies to both the --delete option and to
cases where rsync tries to copy a normal file but the destination
respond to requests accordingly. See the rsyncd.conf(5) man page for more
details.
+dit(bf(--address)) By default rsync will bind to the wildcard address
+when run as a daemon with the --daemon option. The --address option
+allows you to specify a specific IP address (or hostname) to bind
+to. This makes virtual hosting possible in conjunction with the
+--config option.

dit(bf(--config=FILE)) This specifies an alternate config file than
the default /etc/rsyncd.conf. This is only relevant when --daemon is
specified.

filename is not skipped.

The patterns can take several forms. The rules are:
