I have not built my own RPMs before, just built from source .tar.gz files, do you have a good tutorial?
Is a package built by you inherently more secure than a package strait from a mirror?

Another option is to build rsync from source, which is what I did to try out the zstd compression.
Just wanted to share Fedora 32's rsync-3.2.2-1.fc32.src.rpm rebuilds cleanly without any necessary tweaks on CentOS 7. I used mock for a clean build environment.
It is very empowering to learn how to build your own packages and not very hard to get started. I encourage you to do the same!
