--super
This tells the receiving side to attempt super-user activities even if the 
receiving rsync wasn't run by the super-user. These activities include: 
preserving users via the --owner option, preserving all groups (not just the 
current user's groups) via the --groups option, and copying devices via the 
--devices option. This is useful for systems that allow such activities without 
being the super-user, and also for ensuring that you will get errors if the 
receiving side isn't being running as the super-user. To turn off super-user 
activities, the super-user can use --no-super.
