Best method to detect hanging rsync in bash-script ?

2017-04-10 Thread reiner otto via rsync
I am using rsync on an unreliable mobile WAN connection, which causes rsync 
receiver to hang for long time, when connection is broken during transfere. As 
the option "--timeout=" here does not hit for me, is there a recommended "best" 
method to detect such scenario ? --
