### Please describe the problem. git-annex doesn't seem to honor the remote.\.annex-rsync-upload-options or annex.rsync-upload-options anymore. The problem seems to be on the server side. I noticed it when upgrading the ancient git-annex on my server from the version in stretch (6.20170101, --bwlimit worked fine with that) to the version in stretch-backports (7.20190129, --bwlimit broken). On the client I'm running bullseye and git-annex version 8.20210223. I then upgraded git-annex on the server to 8.20210903, the rsync-options don't work with that either. ### What steps will reproduce the problem? #### Client: root@dition:/mnt/sneakerdisk9# mkdir testannex root@dition:/mnt/sneakerdisk9# cd testannex root@dition:/mnt/sneakerdisk9/testannex# git init hint: Using 'master' as the name for the initial branch.

(Sometimes we get tired of reading bug reports all day and a lil' positive end note does wonders) I've been using git-annex for many years with great success. It's a pleasure to use, I don't know how I ever managed to get by without it! > Closing as a duplicate of the bwlimit todo. [[done]] --[[Joey]]
