Oooh, I didn't know about the filter thing; that's really cool.

One important point to bear in mind, though: in that case, you'll
end up re-encrypting every file every time, since rsync wants the
whole file available to run the rsync algorithm with.  If you simply
keep an encrypted copy lying around, rsyncrypto can update changed
files only.
