No, -ii will include unchanged files in the logs in addition to changed files, and thus a %i field (the one with the cryptic characters) is needed to distinguish the two. The -i option also tells rsync to log about files that have attribute changes (not just transferred files), and the %i field is necessary to be able to distinguish if a file just got tweaked or was transferred. If you just want to log transferred files, don't specify -i at all, and use your prior --log-file=FILE and --log-file-format=FORMAT options, but leave out the %i parameter in the latter. ..wayne.. -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
