rsync, excluding files w/certain characteristics

[Edward Peschko]

hey,

I was wondering - is there an option to rsync which allows you to
exclude transfers of files with a certain size or other
characteristics?

I want to setup a 'partial' rsync mirror where I only pull files under
5M, for example.. I see the option for including/excluding file names
in the usage, but not file sizes..

They exist. See options --max-size and --min-size in the manual.
