Actually, I've just did some tests and it appears that rsync creates the
destination folder if its parent already exists and if you have the right
permissions.
For example ("my" and "dest" don't exist yet):
rsync -a src/ dest => "dest" is created
rsync -a src/ my/dest => error, "my" and "dest" don't exist (and are not
created then)
rsync --mkpath -a src/ my/dest => "my" and "dest" are created
