rsync - Apr 2008 - Using mkdir from rsync

Hi all,

When using rsync to copy a full directory path to another machine in
my network, like dir1/dir2/dir3/,  mkdir fails because it have to
create dir1 and dir2 prior to dir3, non of the 3 directories exist in
the remote machine, so mkdir needs the -p option to do that, my
question is: is there any way i can tell mkdir use the -p option when
invoking from rsync?

I do think the message is about mkdir() syscall, not the command mkdir. It is 
impossible to ask to mkdir() to create the whole path, including missing 
parents.

Implementing such feature is surelly possible.

Best regards.
