-P and --progress options to increase the verbosity of the rsync
command. Without -v, -P and --progress don't provide clear output: -v displays the current filename and -P and --progress display the progress of the current transfer. It's important that these two pieces of information work together since -P or --progress without -v is, in a sense, gibberish.
I suggest the simple patch given below. If -P or --progress is included but the verbosity level is 0, it will automatically be incremented to 1.
