[Bug 1683095] [NEW] rsync has -C / --cvs-exclude enabled permanently

[jimlovell777]

Public bug reported:

After upgrading to Ubuntu 17.04 I've noticed that every rsync command
has the -C option added and I can see no way to disable this very
unwanted behavior. I've been running the same set of rsync commands for
years and the -C option was never tacked on like it is now (as far as I
can tell). I've read the man pages, checked the various config files,
tried adding --no-C to all of my scripts (as annoying as that is) and
still see no functioning way to disable this.
