output (on the client) increases to mention all items that are changed in

	This option lets you have fine-grained control over the
	information
	output you want to see. An individual flag name may be followed by a level
	number, with 0 meaning to silence that output, 1 being the default output
	level, and higher numbers increasing the output of that flag (for those
	that support higher levels). Use
	bf(--info=help)
	to see all the available flag names, what they output, and what flag names
	are added for each increase in the verbose level. Some examples:

	verb( rsync -a --info=progress2 src/ dest/
	rsync -avv --info=stats2,misc1,flist0 src/ dest/ )

	Note that bf(--info=name)'s output is affected by the bf(--out-format) and
	bf(--itemize-changes) (bf(-i)) options. See those options for more
	information on what is output and when.

	This option was added to 3.1.0, so an older rsync on the server side might
	reject your attempts at fine-grained control (if one or more flags needed
	to be send to the server and the server was too old to understand them).

	dit(bf(--debug=FLAGS))
	This option lets you have fine-grained control over the debug
	output you want to see. An individual flag name may be followed by a level
	number, with 0 meaning to silence that output, 1 being the default output
	level, and higher numbers increasing the output of that flag (for those
	that support higher levels). Use
	bf(--debug=help)
	to see all the available flag names, what they output, and what flag names
	are added for each increase in the verbose level. Some examples:

	verb( rsync -avvv --debug=none src/ dest/
	rsync -avA --del --debug=del2,acl src/ dest/ )

	Note that some debug messages will only be output when bf(--msgs2stderr) is
	specified, especially those pertaining to I/O and buffer debugging.

	This option was added to 3.1.0, so an older rsync on the server side might
	reject your attempts at fine-grained control (if one or more flags needed
	to be send to the server and the server was too old to understand them).

	dit(bf(--msgs2stderr)) This option changes rsync to send all its output
	directly to stderr rather than to send messages to the client side via the
	protocol (which normally outputs info messages via stdout). This is mainly
	intended for debugging in order to avoid changing the data sent via the
	protocol, since the extra protocol data can change what is being tested.
	Keep in mind that a daemon connection does not have a stderr channel to send
	messages back to the client side, so if you are doing any daemon-transfer
	debugging using this option, you should start up a daemon using bf(--no-detach)
	so that you can see the stderr output on the daemon side.

	This option has the side-effect of making stderr output get line-buffered so
	that the merging of the output of 3 programs happens in a more readable manner.

	dit(bf(--munge-links)) This option tells rsync to (1) modify all symlinks on
	the receiving side in a way that makes them unusable but recoverable (see
	below), or (2) to unmunge symlinks on the sending side that had been stored in
	a munged state. This is useful if you don't quite trust the source of the data
	to not try to slip in a symlink to a unexpected place.

	The way rsync disables the use of symlinks is to prefix each one with the
	string "/rsyncd-munged/". This prevents the links from being used as long as
	that directory does not exist. When this option is enabled, rsync will refuse
	to run if that path is a directory or a symlink to a directory.

	The option only affects the client side of the transfer, so if you need it to
	affect the server, specify it via bf(--remote-option). (Note that in a local
	transfer, the client side is the sender.)

	This option has no affect on a daemon, since the daemon configures whether it
	wants munged symlinks via its "munge symlinks" parameter. See also the
	"munge-symlinks" perl script in the support directory of the source code.

	dit(bf(--preallocate)) This tells the receiver to allocate each destination
	file to its eventual size before writing data to the file. Rsync will only use
	the real filesystem-level preallocation support provided by Linux's
	bf(fallocate)(2) system call or Cygwin's bf(posix_fallocate)(3), not the slow
	glibc implementation that writes a zero byte into each block.

	Without this option, larger files may not be entirely contiguous on the
	filesystem, but with this option rsync will probably copy more slowly. If the
	destination is not an extent-supporting filesystem (such as ext4, xfs, NTFS,
	etc.), this option may have no positive effect at all.

	Starting with 3.1.0, rsync will skip the sender-side removal (and output an

See bf(--delete) (which is implied) for more details on file-deletion.	See bf(--delete) (which is implied) for more details on file-deletion.

	dit(bf(--ignore-missing-args)) When rsync is first processing the explicitly
	requested source files (e.g. command-line arguments or bf(--files-from)
	entries), it is normally an error if the file cannot be found. This option
	suppresses that error, and does not try to transfer the file. This does not
	affect subsequent vanished-file errors if a file was initially found to be
	present and later is no longer there.

	dit(bf(--delete-missing-args)) This option takes the behavior of (the implied)
	bf(--ignore-missing-args) option a step farther: each missing arg will become
	a deletion request of the corresponding destination file on the receiving side
	(should it exist). If the destination file is a non-empty directory, it will
	only be successfully deleted if --force or --delete are in effect. Other than
	that, this option is independent of any other type of delete processing.

	The missing source files are represented by special file-list entries which
	display as a "*missing" entry in the bf(--list-only) output.

	dit(bf(-M, --remote-option=OPTION)) This option is used for more advanced
	situations where you want certain effects to be limited to one side of the
	transfer only. For instance, if you want to pass bf(--log-file=FILE) and
	bf(--fake-super) to the remote system, specify it like this:

	quote(tt( rsync -av -M --log-file=foo -M--fake-super src/ dest/))

	If you want to have an option affect only the local side of a transfer when
	it normally affects both sides, send its negation to the remote side. Like
	this:

	quote(tt( rsync -av -x -M--no-x src/ dest/))

	Be cautious using this, as it is possible to toggle an option that will cause
	rsync to have a different idea about what data to expect next over the socket,
	and that will make it fail in a cryptic fashion.

	Note that it is best to use a separate bf(--remote-option) for each option you
	want to pass. This makes your useage compatible with the bf(--protect-args)
	option. If that option is off, any spaces in your remote options will be split
	by the remote shell unless you take steps to protect them.

	When performing a local transfer, the "local" side is the sender and the
	"remote" side is the receiver.

	Note some versions of the popt option-parsing library have a bug in them that
	prevents you from using an adjacent arg with an equal in it next to a short
	option letter (e.g. tt(-M--log-file=/tmp/foo). If this bug affects your
	version of popt, you can use the version of popt that is included with rsync.

	You may also control this option via the RSYNC_PROTECT_ARGS environment
	variable. If this variable has a non-zero value, this option will be enabled
	by default, otherwise it will be disabled by default. Either state is
	overridden by a manually specified positive or negative version of this option
	(note that bf(--no-s) and bf(--no-protect-args) are the negative versions).
	Since this option was first introduced in 3.0.0, you'll need to make sure it's
	disabled if you ever need to interact with a remote rsync that is older than
	that.

	Rsync can also be configured (at build time) to have this option enabled by
	default (with is overridden by both the environment and the command-line).
	This option will eventually become a new default setting at some
	as-yet-undetermined point in the future.

	dit(bf(--usermap=STRING, --groupmap=STRING)) These options allow you to
	specify users and groups that should be mapped to other values by the
	receiving side. The bf(STRING) is one or more bf(FROM):bf(TO) pairs of
	values separated by commas. Any matching bf(FROM) value from the sender is
	replaced with a bf(TO) value from the receiver. You may specify usernames
	or user IDs for the bf(FROM) and bf(TO) values, and the bf(FROM) value may
	also be a wild-card string, which will be matched against the sender's
	names (wild-cards do NOT match against ID numbers, though see below for
	why a '*' matches everything). You may instead specify a range of ID
	numbers via an inclusive range: LOW-HIGH. For example:

	verb( --usermap=0-99:nobody,wayne:admin,*:normal --groupmap=usr:1,1:usr)

	The first match in the list is the one that is used. You should specify
	all your user mappings using a single bf(--usermap) option, and/or all
	your group mappings using a single bf(--groupmap) option.

	Note that the sender's name for the 0 user and group are not transmitted
	to the receiver, so you should either match these values using a 0, or use
	the names in effect on the receiving side (typically "root"). All other
	bf(FROM) names match those in use on the sending side. All bf(TO) names
	match those in use on the receiving side.

	Any IDs that do not have a name on the sending side are treated as having an
	empty name for the purpose of matching. This allows them to be matched via
	a "*" or using an empty name. For instance:

	verb( --usermap=:nobody --groupmap=*:nobody)

	When the bf(--numeric-ids) option is used, the sender does not send any
	names, so all the IDs are treated as having an empty name. This means that
	you will need to specify numeric bf(FROM) values if you want to map these
	nameless IDs to different values.

	For the bf(--usermap) option to have any effect, the bf(-o) (bf(--owner))
	option must be used (or implied), and the receiver will need to be running
	as a super-user (see also the bf(--fake-super) option). For the bf(--groupmap)
	option to have any effect, the bf(-g) (bf(--groups)) option must be used
	(or implied), and the receiver will need to have permissions to set that
	group.

	dit(bf(--chown=USER:GROUP)) This option forces all files to be owned by USER
	with group GROUP. This is a simpler interface than using bf(--usermap) and
	bf(--groupmap) directly, but it is implemented using those options internally,
	so you cannot mix them. If either the USER or GROUP is empty, no mapping for
	the omitted user/group will occur. If GROUP is empty, the trailing colon may
	be omitted, but if USER is empty, a leading colon must be supplied.

	If you specify "--chown=foo:bar, this is exactly the same as specifying
	"--usermap=:foo --groupmap=:bar", only easier.

	dit(bf(--outbuf=MODE)) This sets the output buffering mode. The mode can be
	None (aka Unbuffered), Line, or Block (aka Full). You may specify as little
	as a single letter for the mode, and use upper or lower case.

	The main use of this option is to change Full buffering to Line buffering
	when rsync's output is going to a file or pipe.

	units of 1024.

	The default is human-readable level 1. Each bf(-h) option increases the level
	by one. You can take the level down to 0 (to output numbers as pure digits) by
	specifing the bf(--no-human-readable) (bf(--no-h)) option.

	The unit letters that are appended in levels 2 and 3 are: K (kilo), M (mega),
	G (giga), or T (tera). For example, a 1234567-byte file would output as 1.23M
	in level-2 (assuming that a period is your local decimal point).

	Backward compatibility note: versions of rsync prior to 3.1.0 do not support
	human-readable level 1, and they default to level 0. Thus, specifying one or
	two bf(-h) options will behave in a comparable manner in old and new versions
	as long as you didn't specify a bf(--no-h) option prior to one or more bf(-h)

	In an incremental recursion scan, rsync won't know the total number of files
	in the file-list until it reaches the ends of the scan, but since it starts to
	transfer files during the scan, it will display a line with the text "ir-chk"
	(for incremental recursion check) instead of "to-chk" until the point that it
	knows the full size of the list, at which point it will switch to using
	"to-chk". Thus, seeing "ir-chk" lets you know that the total count of files
	in the file list is still going to increase (and each time it does, the count
	of files left to check will increase by the number of the files added to the
	list).

	For backward-compatibility reasons, the rate limit will be rounded to the
	nearest KiB unit, so no rate smaller than 1024 bytes per second is possible.

	Rsync writes data over the socket in blocks, and this option both limits the
	size of the blocks that rsync writes, and tries to keep the average transfer
	rate at the requested limit. Some "burstiness" may be seen where rsync writes
	out a block of data and then sleeps to bring the average rate into compliance.

	Due to the internal buffering of data, the bf(--progress) option may not be an
	accurate reflection on how fast the data is being sent. This is because some
	files can show up as being rapidly sent when the data is quickly buffered,
	while other can show up as very slow when the flushing of the output buffer
	occurs. This may be fixed in a future version.
