rsync - Nov 2013 - Rsync backups up files that have not changed

rsync -b --suffix=.felipe /tmp/file1 /tmp/file2 remote_host:/tmp/

If file1 has not changed, I still get a /tmp/file1.felipe file which is
100% exactly the same as /tmp/file1

Can this be prevented, while still backing up files that have changed?

Cheers,
Felipe

You aren't using -a or -t so rsync isn't copying timestamps so it has
no idea what has changed and what hasn't.
