Regular file transfers are interleaved with filesystem scanning in
"incremental recursion" mode, which is supported when both sides are
3.0.0 or newer and certain conflicting options are not in use.  By
default, incremental recursion is used whenever possible; it can be
turned off explicitly with --no-i-r.
