You can also do a dry run to check: --dry-run, -n perform a trial run with no changes made
For testing, the --verbose, -v option is very handy too. I often run `rsync -avn ...` to do a dry-run and check that the files/directories I expect to be transferred/updated are indeed included.
I find -i (itemise) better than -v these days.
