Using rsync-2.4.6:
Is a times difference supposed to cause a write?
Also -t vs -I makes no difference.
Below shows the problem, I think:
[dmahurin at pc16 /tmp]$ mkdir x y
[dmahurin at pc16 /tmp]$ cp /bin/ls x
[dmahurin at pc16 /tmp]$ ls -l x/ls
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dmahurin users 43024 Nov 13 12:46 x/ls
[dmahurin at pc16 /tmp]$ rsync -vrtW x/ y
building file list ... done
./
ls
./
