--- Comment #3 from Kevin Korb <rsync at sanitarium.net> ---
Simple...
source == copy the source directory
source/ == copy the contents of the directory
source/* == copy everything that your shell globs that wildcard into.

IOW, ./* won't copy anything that "echo ./*" doesn't list.  Having a * in there
also short-circuits --delete.
