dit(bf(--link-dest=DIR)) This option behaves like bf(--compare-dest) but
also will create hard links from em(DIR) to the destination directory for
unchanged files. Files with changed ownership or permissions will not be

dit(bf(-z, --compress)) With this option, rsync compresses any data from
the files that it sends to the destination machine. This
