Hey there,

when i try to sync two directories or files containing a "-" character
in ther path, rsync fails:
# /usr/bin/rsync --partial -rcvaLe "ssh -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o \
StrictHostKeyChecking=no" --progress "user at server:/path/band - album/" "/path/"

this gives an error like:
rsync: on remote machine: -: unknown option

every escaping like \- or \\- fails, too. Any help is appreciated.
