This difference you've noted is documented in man rsync (1):
A trailing slash on the source changes this behavior to
avoid creating
an additional directory level at the destination. You can
think of a
trailing / on a source as meaning "copy the contents of this
directory"
as opposed to "copy the directory by name", but in
both cases the
attributes of the containing directory are transferred to
the contain-
ing directory on the destination. In other words, each of
the follow-
ing commands copies the files in the same way, including
their setting
of the attributes of /dest/foo:
> mkdir tmpdir; cd tmpdir
> mkdir a; touch a/b
> rsync -r a b/
> ls b
a/
Try: "rsync -r a/ b/" instead.
