permissions with rsync

Quoting from rsync man page: to give destination files (both old and new) the source permissions, use --perms. To give new files the destination-default permissions (while leaving existing files unchanged), make sure that the --perms option is off and use --chmod=ugo=rwX

Example:
 rsync -av --no-p --chmod=ugo=rwX -e "ssh -i /path/to/key" src dest
