Indeed! :-/

For example I use:

rsync -avz --progress --delete --exclude=2008 --exclude=mactex* 
--exclude=Mac* tug.org::texlive/tlnet/ /tmp/tl2009_repo

Just a curiosity...

'ps' shows TWO 'rsync' processes:

$ ps
       PID    PPID    PGID     WINPID  TTY  UID    STIME COMMAND
      1668     684    1668       2848    2 1006 21:42:37 /usr/bin/bash
      3788    2948    3788       2784    0 1006 22:04:59 /usr/bin/rsync
      2920    3788    3788       2920    0 1006 22:05:00 /usr/bin/rsync
      2320    1668    2320       2212    2 1006 22:05:19 /usr/bin/ps

Why?

CTRL-C. and restart :-(
