Update References when renaming header files changes the include style [message #1816247]

I'm using Eclipse 2019-06 and CDT 9.8.1 and when I do refactoring filename of a C /H code I get oddly formatted includes.
1. Going to project explorer to a generic C project
2. Selecting an H file
3. Right clinking it and selecting "Rename"
4. Leaving "Update References" checked and giving it a new name

Will update its name and everything which referenced it, but now instead of using previous style:
#include "file.h"
Now it used the system style and include will look like:
#include <file_new_name.h>

Is it possible to configure it to retain the previous style?

This has annoyed me for quite some time too.

Please go vote for this if you want this fixed too.
