No. If you don't want the $FILE.sh, just delete it. > Also, should running it twice in a row > quickly produce 2 files that should diff the same, or is something > stored in there that would prevent a diff from being the same? > (Timestamp, etc) There is one thing that impedes reproducibility of batch files: rsync uses the current time as a seed for the delta-transfer algorithm so that delta-transfer corruptions won't occur repeatedly for the same file. If you specify your own seed with --checksum-seed and nothing in the source or destination changes, then the batch files should be identical. Matt
