I suspect I am about to ask a question that may have been asked before. Sorry for any redundancy.

Regarding $Conf{RsyncArgs} = [ ... ] and all the sub 'sections' there of.

I have had the following on various clients that needed to have the acls and xattrs attributes backed up for many years now. Like so:

$Conf{RsyncArgsExtra} = [];
    --acls
    --xattrs

I have been lucky as all these years I have never noticed these attributes missing after a restore or for that matter, needed to restore many files and found these acls & xattrs atrributes where missing.

So, my question is do I need to include '--acls' & '--xattrs' to any of the other five sections listed?:

$Conf{RsyncArgsExtra} = [];
$Conf{RsyncFullArgsExtra} = ['--checksum'];
$Conf{RsyncIncrArgsExtra} = [];
$Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs} = [ ... ];
$Conf{RsyncRestoreArgsExtra} = [];

Especially for restore purposes?
