Hi Francis,

Thank you, it wasn't timestamps, but group id inconsistency (the source, 
in this case is a Windows box, ids are always tricky).
You put me on the right track anyway, I had not realised how useful 
--itemize-changes can be.
I must rewrite the group ID after transfer, because the destination gid 
(special group), is neither the source (users) nor the invoking id 
(root) and I see no option to rewrite it in rsync.

Merci beaucoup,

Robert
