chattr

Hello -

I am trying to find a program, ideally rsync, that preserves attributes
set by chattr, when a file is copied. For example, consider the following:

	cd /var/tmp
	touch foo
	chattr +i foo
	rsync foo bar
	lsattr foo bar

I have experimented with several different programs, but have not found
anything that seems to archive those file attributes. Have any of you
encountered this and if so, how do you address it?

Thanks - Marc
