The itemized output is telling you that rsync is re-copying the files because
there is a time stamp difference.  When rsync is used locally it runs with
--whole-file so it will re-copy the entire file because of the time stamp
difference.  But even if it wasn't running in --whole-file mode it can't store
the same file with two different timestamps so it still wouldn't link to the
previous version.
