Rsync to just upload new/updated files without comparing source/destination

[Kevin Korb]

If the source only has 50 files then rsync only needs to check for those
50 files on the target.  If one exists rsync will compare the timestamp
to see if it needs copying.  Yes, rsync verifies a hash of the file
after transfer.
