That is what --partial does. It keeps the partial file. If it kept the
temporary file with the random file name that would just be a useless
orphaned file.

run rsync with --progress --size-only --partial (version 3.1.2) also
tested/built current master ( 3.3.0pre1-5-g6f3c5ecc )
everything works fine unless I interrupt a transfer ( ctrl c )
I would expect to see the incomplete, temporary, hidden file present on
the remote machine.
So that when I call rsync again, it could just pick up where it left off
and continue transferring data.
But instead there is no hidden file, and the partial/incomplete file
exists, as the actual filename.
This is bad, because any code that is expecting existing non-hidden
files to be complete will have issues.
I apologize if I've missed the command line options I'm looking for
Thanks for maintaining a critical piece of software!
