No.  If you don't want the $FILE.sh, just delete it.

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.
