I use rsync to backup a few thousands of files and pipe the output to a file. Given the number of files I'd like to see a list of only those transfers that had issues as well as a summary to show which completed.
So, using the -q flag displays nicely by exception any error only.
Using --stats shows a helpful summary at the end.
The problem is that I cannot combine them because it appears that -q suppresses the stats output.
Any ideas welcome.

Method 1: Using –progress option to see the rsync progress:Use the “–progress” in the rsync command and “-av” to get a summary at the end of file transfer, consisting of transfer rate, sent/receive bytes, speed of transfer, and total file size.
-v, --verboseA single -v gives you information about what files are being transferred and a summary at the end. Two -v options give you information on what files are being skipped and slightly more information at the end. More than two -v options should only be used if you are debugging rsync.
Rsync, which stands for remote sync, is a remote and local file synchronization tool. It uses an algorithm to minimize the amount of data copied by only moving the portions of files that have changed.
rsync is a useful and efficient synchronization tool for transferring files and directories. rsync works in the archive mode if the -a option is passed. It synchronizes the directories recursively. It also keeps the ownership of users and groups, permissions, symbolic links (symlinks), and timestamps.
This did the trick for me :
rsync -azh --stats <source> <destination>
