My guess is that you're using a wildcard and your shell isn't expanding
that wildcard to include dot dirs.  For instance:

    rsync -av /home/user/* remote:/home/user

This would normally fail to include any dot dirs (unless you have your
local shell setup to include them).  If this guess is correct, the
solution is to just drop the '*' (but not the trailing slash) and let
rsync do its own directory reading (which will include dot dirs).
