rsync by default ensures that at any moment either the complete old
file, or the complete new file is visible. If it's truncating it, then
you're probably using some option that instructs it to. Unfortunately
your bug report is incomplete as you don't show what options you in fact
are using.

You may want to look into --inplace or --partial --partial-dir=XXX
