I have encountered an issue with direct async processes and the rsync method. 
When I use rsync then try and open a remote a shell I get this message and the 
shell doesn’t work “sh: no job control in this shell”. I dug into the issue and 
found that it is this setting

https://cgit.git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/tramp.git/tree/lisp/tramp-sh.el#n236

The value of tramp-direct-async is set to t for rsync, but is ‘(“-t” “-t”) in 
scp. If I change this to match scp, then remote shells work again for me. Is 
there a reason for this difference and is this something can be fixed?
