I recently discovered the --itemize-changes option to rsync. It is incredibly handy. I often run rsync with -nv to see what it will do, but with this option it will tell you why.
However, I have discovered one thing that it remains quiet about: --link-dest. If you tell rsync to link against a given directory, these link actions will produce no output with either -v or --itemize-changes. I can understand that -v might be quiet about them since no files are being transferred, but --itemize-changes does show remote hardlink actions
