When you run “rsync”, a wrapper will inspect your command and dispatch to either /usr/libexec/rsync/rsync.samba or rsync.openrsync: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions/rsync/blob/main/rsync.wrapper.c
If you need one version over the other, select them explicitly — and probably rsync.samba will disappear eventually…

@zekjur cursed (and yet I have a wrapper script that inspects files to try to figure out whether to run them with python3 or python2...)
