I hadn't thought of that. Possibly a fake rsync would be feasible. It
would maybe have some benefits, though what could it do that we
couldn't accomplish in-process by dispatching from system()? Say we
want to test the validation/verification bits: just have the system()
dispatch to something that makes a tree, log, etc.
May need to look at how dirvish picks `which rsync` and make sure that
it test-friendly. In the past, (IIRC) I think it has been hardcoded
into the installed code by the build :-(
