            Bug ID: 12916
           Summary: when rsync fails to chown, it gives up and does not
                    set timestamp
           Product: rsync
           Version: 3.1.3
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P5
         Component: core
          Assignee: wayned at samba.org
          Reporter: iank at fsf.org
        QA Contact: rsync-qa at samba.org

If I do

rsync -ot VFAT_FS_MOUNT

It outputs

rsync: chown "SOME_PATH" failed: Operation not permitted (1)

And it's timestamp is the current time, not the source time as specified
by -t. Rsync should not give up on setting the time just because it
couldn't set the owner. rsync -t works fine.

I tested on git master from today, ce854cf021cb7207ee504c6badf97b4ffbb2021a
