  Target Milestone: ---

i need to transfer files in correct order so they are serialized on disk in a
special way to optimize access time.

apparently, files fed via --files-from automatically getting ordered.

it would be nice if this could be discabled. 

i could help myself with tar trough a pipe, but i would use my favourite and
most trusted file transfer tool to handle such a job, too.
