Package: rsync Version: 3.0.7-2 Severity: wishlist
Hi, the way rsync works right now, any source argument containing a colon is treated as a remote sepcifier. This of course is annoying when you are trying to copy local files that contain a colon. I'd therefore like to either have an '--local' option which tells rsync the next argument is local, no matter what, or a '--remote-seperator', which tells rsync which sequence of characters should take the place of the colon.
