A feature I have wished for that would save a MASSIVE amount of time during restructuring large directories full of large files, would be to check the destination for the files that are to be transferred, and see if they are present even if they are not in the correct locations. Then, if they are present but incorrectly placed, mv them on the destination to the correct location, rather than re-transfer them and the delete the misplaced copy. Or rather than delete the misplaced copy, and then re-transfer. This would save bandwidth and time in many of the transfers that I do.
Thanks for your consideration!

Did you try the --fuzzy option?
