Is the following expected?

Doing a command like (as root):

# rsync -x -r --delete --file-flags --force-change -aAHhh \
     --info=progress2 / /mnt/

produces a couple of notices:

Something something related to the "schg" flag?


Out of those only the 2 indicated reported any messages.


Maybe only those two were actually modified and needed to be rsynced?
