I've updated the Cygwin 1.7 version of rsync to 3.0.6-1.
rsync is a file transfer program. rsync uses the 'rsync algorithm' which
provides a very fast method for bringing remote files into sync. It does
this by sending just the differences in the files across the link,
without requiring that both

Is the transition to 1.7 a good time to change the ABI and offer a 64-bit
time_t type that won't overflow in 2038? Would we have to do the same
sort of transition magic as was done back in 1.5 for 32-bit vs. 64-bit off_t?

Ah, thanks for noticing.
I'll fix that while upgrading to 1.8.7 (hopefully soon).
