- bcl 17y agorsync uses ssh by default, no need for -e anymore unless you need to specify a key or port or blowfish (which you can all do with ~/.ssh/config)
- pingswept 17y agoA good point, but I believe that most recent versions (since around 2004, I think) of rsync now use ssh by default, so the -e flag is not needed to use ssh.
