There is no ordering against getty.target. For ordering you need
After/Before. not Requires. Also it probably should be WantedBy.
RequiredBy implies that getty.target is stopped if this unit is
stopped. But as this unit is oneshot and RemainAfterExit=no, it is
stopped immediately after rsync has finished - so, getty.target should
be stopped as well?
