how to retain remote permissions of rsynced files

I've read through the man page of rsync but still can't figure out what are the flags for this requirement:

  • set 775 permission of new files/directories in destination host

note: local host is windows xp, remote is linux

edit: i'm using the following flags for the moment. 

-rltzC --force --delete

I think i found it...

thanks to http://catcode.com

rsync's chmod flag do not accept bitmask, instead it accepts who=permissions format.

For my question, the answer is

--chmod=og=rx

rsync will now set permission 755 for newly synced files/directories in remote host
