Hi together,
I'd like to propose the attached patch for the man page clarifying the
difference between shell patterns and rsync patterns as it is not clear
in at least of the examples (the user might think that `rsync
remote.host:*.c /local/target/` is possible.
A HACKING file has been added to provide an entry point for working on
documentation.

All the best,
Karl-P. Richter
