First, get rid of the backslashes.
Second, drop verbosity to just -vv (not -vvv).
Dont use more verbosity that you need, it just gets in the
way.  With -vv rsync will report what rule applied to each
path. Read it. Study it.  See if the rules applied are the
expected ones or not.

If you are going to generate debug messages you aught to be
reading them.
