I'm currently working on a tool that would do such a transformation as a
"preprocessing". I.e. - the files are preprocessed, and then the other
directory is rsynced. In my case this is for encrypting (but I compress
as part of the process, using the gzip "rsyncable" option).
If you're interested in this extremely preliminary pre-alpha not tested
still being developed use at your own risk project, check out

P.s.
Currently, it's just the encryption part that I've worked on. The code
in CVS (there is no other code at the moment) does not handle the actual
tree scanning and copying, but it will soon. It goes without saying that
any help would be appreciated.
