And would it be possible to have temporary file, in a separate directory hierarchy from the same filesystem? for exemple rsync -r /fs1/mydir /fs2/mydir should create /fs2/rsync_temporary_files/.machin.truc.chose and then move it to /fs2/mydir/something/machin.truc this would make less errors on a simultaneous diff or tar.
