Hi

Another rather recent feature of "rsync -R" (--relative) is to easily
allow to specify from what point you want -R to apply.

From the man:

 -R, --relative
  ...
  It is also possible to limit the amount of path information that
  is  sent as implied directories for each path you specify.  With
  a modern rsync on the sending side (beginning with  2.6.7),  you
  can insert a dot and a slash into the source path, like this:

     rsync -avR /foo/./bar/baz.c remote:/tmp/

  That  would  create /tmp/bar/baz.c on the remote machine.  (Note
  that the dot must be followed by a slash, so "/foo/." would  not
  be  abbreviated.)   For  older rsync versions, you would need to
  use a chdir to limit the source path.  For example, when pushing
  files:

     (cd /foo; rsync -avR bar/baz.c remote:/tmp/)
