Greetings,

I just noticed my rsync backup scripts failing and discovered it was due to a
missing ancestor of the remote target directory. I immediately searched for a
tunable that would signal rsync to use 'mkdir -p' instead of just 'mkdir' when
initially creating the target directory, but didn't seem to find one.

I agree with everyone else that it would be incredibly useful for rsync to
either adopt such behaviour by default (assuming always doing 'mkdir -p' isn't
harmful in any way), or have a tunable to enable it.

Kind regards,
moggie
