The text in the description of the --append option may lead one to
believe that files that are shorter on the receiving side won't be
updated, due to the following text:
...
Only files on the receiving side that are shorter than the
corresponding file on the sending side (as well as new files)
are sent. ...
IMHO this text should be changed to:
Only files on the receiving side that are shorter than the
corresponding file on the sending side are affected by this option.
Other files are transferred in the usual manner.
