Hi

2014/10/02 09:09:16 [2124] >f..t...... Folder/file.doc
2014/10/02 09:12:41 [2124] >f..t...... Folder/file2.doc
2014/10/02 09:15:38 [2124] >f..t...... Folder/file3.doc

This is the result of the output with --itemize-changes. Does it mean that
rsync is finding a different in the timestamp?

What if I use *--size-only? Should it work?*
