From the rsync man page that the error directs you to:
> rsync occasionally produces error messages that may seem a little cryp‐
> tic. The one that seems to cause the most confusion is "protocol ver‐
> sion mismatch -- is your shell clean?".
> This message is usually caused by your startup scripts or remote shell
> facility producing unwanted garbage on the stream that rsync is using
> for its transport. The way to diagnose this problem is to run your
> remote shell like this:
> ssh remotehost /bin/true > out.dat
> then look at out.dat. If everything is working correctly then out.dat
> should be a zero length file. If you are getting the above error from
> rsync then you will probably find that out.dat contains some text or
> data. Look at the contents and try to work out what is producing it.
> The most common cause is incorrectly configured shell startup scripts
> (such as .cshrc or .profile) that contain output statements for
> non-interactive logins.
