rsync supports a tremendous number of options; it would be nice to be able to pass these to it rather than being limited only to recursion. It will probably be cumbersome to implement a mapping to all of the available rsync options, and some of the pssh options have conflicting names, so it would be good to simply have the ability to pass them as an arbitrary string.

There's a lot of ways to do this: setting an environment variable, passing some sort of command line option, etc.

Does the maintainer have thoughts on how this would best be done?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that this is basically equivalent to the request in issue #2. This should be in pssh 2.1 as the -x/-X options. Let me know if there's anything missing there, or if it looks like it meets your needs. Thanks.

I haven't heard back from you, so for now I'll assume that the new "-x" and "-X" options are sufficient. I'll close the issue, but please reopen it if I'm missing anything. Thanks for your help.
