Hi, Try to use ssh-tunnelling and rsync daemon, instead of built-in ssh support in rsync.
OpenSSH on cygwin must have CYGWIN=ntsec to make things work. This is inherited by built-in rsync ssh on server side. It results with unwanted adjustment of your files' permissions. When you use rsync daemon, it is possible to specify CYGWIN=nontsec during initialization (cygrunsrv). You can then establish an ssh tunnel to send rsync requests to this daemon.
