The version number shown by setup indicates that the maintainer built the 
package from a snapshot of the upstream git repository rather than from a stable 
release.  The maintainer chose this version number, presumably to indicate that 
the snapshot was made on 2020-04-29 after git commit f7746d0.

> For that installed version, `rsync --version` says the version is 3.2.0dev

That version number is determined by the upstream rsync developers, and it 
indicates that the build is based on a snapshot of the development branch for a 
future 3.2.0 release.  (This is what Andrey was saying.)

The latest stable release, 3.1.3, is two years old.  I'm sure Jari had good 
reasons for wanting to make a more recent version available.
