So you are rsyncing off the internet? In that case I think your main
option is the suggestion to use rsync with --dry-run, but in that case
if there are new files, you are doing all the non-download work twice
(unless you capture and process the output and then rsync individual
files). I'm not sure it is worth the effort....
The original message didn't say anything about it being over the
internet. In that case, there is no way to do what you want. The only
way to know if there are changes is to run the rsync. And if you have
to run it anyway, what's the point of checking for changes first?
