+ The --retry option retries transfers on "transient failures". We later added
+ --retry-connrefused to also retry for "connection refused" errors.
+
+ Suggestions have been brought to also allow retry on "network is unreachable"
+ errors and while totally reasonable, maybe we should consider a way to make

+ want to retry for?
