Well, the man says path is a dir. You could rsync the parent dir and set the filter to exclude all others or include only this file.
rsyncd.conf(5) - Linux man page
Another possibility is to work around it by putting the flat file alone in a new dir, and sym-link or link it to be acessible from the original path. Just note that a sym-link imposes a slight cost at open. While rsync of any kind of link may have various problems and restrictions, it will certainly work if both ends are single linked flat files in the new dir, and the original path has a sym-link to it. Whether the apps on both ends are happy opening the sym-links in orignal paths is an additional question.

svn::notify::mirror::rsync
SVN::Notify::Mirror::Rsync(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation SVN::Notify::Mirror::Rsync(3pm)
NAME
SVN::Notify::Mirror::Rsync - Mirror a repository path via Rsync
SYNOPSIS
Use svnnotify in post-commit:
svnnotify --repos-path "$1" --revision "$2"
--handler Mirror::Rsync --to "/path/to/local/htdocs"
[--svn-binary /full/path/to/svn]
--rsync-host remote_server
[--rsync-delete=[yes|no]]
[--rsync-dest "/path/on/remote/server"]
[--rsync-args arg1 [--rsync-args arg2...]]
[[--rsync-ssh] [--ssh-user remote_user]
[--ssh-identity /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa]]
or better yet, use SVN::Notify::Config for a more sophisticated setup:
#!/usr/bin/perl -MSVN::Notify::Config=$0
--- #YAML:1.0
'':
PATH: "/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin"
'path/in/repository':
handler: Mirror
to: "/path/to/www/htdocs"
'some/other/path/in/repository':
handler: Mirror
to: "/path/to/local/www/htdocs"
rsync-host: "remote_host"
rsync-dest: "/path/on/remote/www/htdocs"
ssh-user: "remote_user"
ssh-identity: "/home/user/.ssh/id_rsa"
DESCRIPTION
Keep a directory in sync with a portion of a Subversion repository. Typically used to keep a development web server in sync with the
changes made to the repository. This directory can either be on the same box as the repository itself, or it can be remote (via SSH
connection).
USAGE
Depending on whether the target is a "Local Mirror" or a Remote Mirror, there are different options available. All options are available
either as a commandline option to svnnotify or as a hash key in SVN::Notify::Config (see their respective documentation for more details).
Working Copy on Local host
Because 'svn export' is not able to be consistently updated, the local rsync'd directory must be a full working copy. The remote server
will only contain the ordinary files (no Subversion admin files).
The files in the working copy must be writeable (preferrably owned) by the user identity executing the hook script (this is the user
identity that is running Apache or svnserve respectively).
Local Mirror
Please see " SVN::Notify::Mirror " for details.
Remote Mirror
Used for directories not located on the same machine as the repository itself. Typically, this might be a production web server located in
a DMZ, so special consideration must be paid to security concerns. In particular, the remote mirror server may not be able to directly
access the repository box.
o rsync-host
This value is required and must be the hostname or IP address of the remote host (where the mirror directories reside).
o rsync-delete
The default mode of operation is to delete remote files which are not present in the local working copy. NOTE: this will delete any
unversioned files in the remote directory tree. Unless you have all of your files under version control, you should pass the
"--no-rsync-delete" or "--rsync-delete no" option.
o rsync-dest
This optional value specifies the path to update on the remote host. If you do not specify this value, the same path as passed in as
the "--to" parameter will be used (this may not be what you meant to do).
o rsync-args
This optional parameter can be used to pass additional commandline options to the rsync command. You can use this multiple times in
order to pass multiple options. The default args are "--archive --compress". See the "rsync-ssh" options for using SSH instead of RSH
(rather than pass those commands via "--rsync-args"
o rsync-ssh
This optional parameter signals that you wish to use SSH instead of whatever the default remote shell program is configured in your
copy of rsync. You may need to set one or more of the "ssh-*" parameters as well.
o ssh-user
If the remote user is different than the local user executing the postcommit script, you can specify it with this parameter. You would
often use this in conjunction with the next parameter.
o ssh-identity
This value may be optional and should be the full path to the local identity file being used to authenticate with the remote host. If
you are setting the ssh-user to be something other than the local user name, you will typically also have to set the ssh-identity.
