From "man rsync"
"Note that if you don’t specify --backup-dir, (1) the --omit-dir-times option
will be implied, and (2) if --delete is also in effect (without --delete-
excluded), rsync will add a "protect" filter-rule for the backup suffix to the
end of all your existing excludes (e.g. -f "P *~"). This will prevent
previously backed-up files from being deleted. Note that if you are supplying
your own filter rules, you may need to manually insert your own
exclude/protect rule somewhere higher up in the list so that it has a high
enough priority to be effective (e.g., if your rules specify a trailing
inclusion/exclusion of ’*’, the auto-added rule would never be reached)."
