Greetings, Brent Epp!

> I have a large collection of custom tooling that depends on rsync.  It

Check for BLODA. Although I'm still suspicious.
All I've seen so far is

rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at receiver.c(582) [receiver=3.1.0]
rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at io.c(1642) [generator=3.1.0]

this is a link to production VPS. It consistently hangs midway the transfer.
Like it has a clairvoyance, no matter if the upload is 1 file of 100 files,
halfway through it drops, and I have to restart the upload, then it goes to
complete success.
