#9: Compiled python files are deleted when syncing

 Reporter:  hinder      |       Owner:  mrthomas
     Type:  defect      |      Status:  new     
 Priority:  minor       |   Milestone:          
Component:  SimFactory  |     Version:          
 Keywords:              |  
------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 When SimFactory is run, the python interpreter compiles the human-readable
 python source files to bytecode and stores them as .pyc files.  These
 would normally be synced to the remote machine along with the .py files,
 which is bad because the python bytecode version might not be the same on
 each platform.  Instead, they are excluded from the sync.  However,
 because we use rsync with its --delete-excluded option, this means that
 those files on the remote machine will be deleted.  According to the rsync
 man page, "filter rules" can be used to protect certain files from being
 deleted due to exclusion on the remote side.
