You can find the answer to this in the man page as well as in the help
output, just look for the word "time".  (Hint: -t)

You really want to be using "unison", since this is what it is designed
to do.  It handles deletions (which your invocation of rsync doesn't),
lets you see a diff of what changed, handles conflicts caused by a
change on both sides, etc., etc.
