Entity John Jones spoke thus:

I lied. rsync by default copies ignoring extended attributes. In Terminal
you would say:
rsync -a ~/TheVelvetTurtle /Volumes/Caches

to copy the entire folder to the destination.

Spaces in filepaths will need to be escaped:
rsync -a ~/The\ Velvet\ Turtle /Volumes/Caches

In an Applescript it would look like:

do shell script "rsync -a ~/The\\ Velvet\\ Turtle /Volumes/Caches"
