Fix commited, thanks!

I did some more researches:

rsync 3.1.0 introduces '--preallocate', do you think that's suitable?
See https://rsync.samba.org/ftp/rsync/src/rsync-3.1.0-NEWS

As Tails ships an older version of rsync, I will test this option later.

That's would be great! Do you feel like doing this?
May I help by filling proper feature requests on Sourceforge?

Tails ships grsync 1.2.0-1, I will try to reproduce this bug with a more
recent version.

Thanks and cheers,
