When I try this (with -n added, as I have no interest in downloading all
of that), I don't see any paths beginning with /src/ being listed. The
last file listed is "scripts/text-processing/wptoascii".
What's the problem?

Now I'm really confused.
If I use the above command with -anv then all '/src/***' files are excluded.
If I 'rm -rf src' and run the command again without -n then all the files
from src get synced again.
I'm confused when -azn and -az work differently.
Suggestions welcome.
