Thanks to Sylvain, who pointed to the "-modify-window" parameter!
This does do exactly what I've been looking for. It's in the man pages, but
rsync's ones are very long ... and I missed it.
So for people with a similar problem, here's the solution:
http://linuxreviews.org/man/rsync/index.html.en
{
--modify-window
When comparing two timestamps, rsync treats the timestamps as being
equal if they differ by no more than the modify-window value. This is
normally 0 (for an exact match), but you may find it useful to set this to a
larger value in some situations. In particular, when transferring to or from
an MS Windows FAT filesystem (which represents times with a 2-second
resolution), --modify-window=1 is useful (allowing times to differ by up to 1
second).
}
That's great. Rsync is incredible helpful! And the people behind Cygwin
brings it to us. And this mailings-list's people :-)
All the best to you.
-Richard
