+dit(bf(--checksum-seed=NUM)) Set the MD4 checksum seed to the integer
+NUM.  This 4 byte checksum seed is included in each block and file
+MD4 checksum calculation.  By default the checksum seed is generated
+by the server and defaults to the current time(), or 32761 if
+bf(--write-batch) or bf(--read-batch) are specified.  This option
+is used to set a specific checksum seed, which is useful for
+applications that want repeatable block and file checksums, or
+in the case where the user wants a more random checksum seed.
+Note that setting NUM to 0 causes rsync to use the default of time()
+for checksum seed.  Note also that bf(--write-batch) and bf(--read-batch)
+set the checksum seed to 32761, so bf(--checksum-seed=NUM) needs to
+follow these options if you want to specify a different checksum
+seed in batch mode.
