Is there a way to get rsync to simply re-link the files instead?

I think the --detect-renamed option provided by the experimental patch
detect-renamed.diff does what you want, although it might have a
performance penalty.  To test the option, you will need to compile
your own copy of rsync from source after applying the patch.
