Specifically, this:
/* FIXME: This can be confusing when the error message
* is coming from a remote server which has an older
* rsync version than the local version. The user
* sees the option documented in the local --help, but
* then the program seems to refuse to execute it. So
* perhaps the message should give the hostname or
* something.
*
* In rsync 3.x, it might be nice if options which
* only affect one end didn't have to bother the
* remote end. */
slprintf(err_buf,sizeof(err_buf),"unrecognised option\n");
return 0;
Perhaps just a conditional on am_server would do.
