[www-patch] Change sample rsync command in rsync.html

[Volker Reichelt]

The following patch adds three --exclude options to the sample
rsync command in rsync.html to make it work with the latest
changes of the repository and to reduce unnecessary load.
See http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2004-06/msg00043.html

The patch also wraps the sample commands in blockquotes and removes
the leading shell prompt (to match cvs.html).

Checked as valid XHTML.

Ok to commit?

Regards,
Volker

I'd also suggest to remove the --checksum option.  It adds considerable
load to the process because it forces to read the contents of all files.
Most of the time the use of timestamps and sizes is good enough.

This looks fine, thanks.

Agreed.  In the mid term, we probably should switch to CSS.

What about Andreas Schwab's suggestion:

Does everybody agree with him?
