Did/ test/abc/def/yaya/lolo/ghi exist?
Rsync will create the target dir if it doesn't already exist but it will not create the parents of the target dir.

Try mkdir -p.

mkdir -p after call rsync? it's ok in local but for rsync machine A to B mkdir is not possible

Yannick, "blocker" means that the bug blocks most meaningful use cases of rsync, not that it blocks what you are trying to do with rsync.

The behavior is as currently expected, and we already have an enhancement request for an option to create the ancestors of the destination.
