Syncdaemon creates lots of .u1conflict files when there are no real conflicts

Bug Description

U1 is syncing a large number of files from one machine up to the servers. Only one machine is syncing. The files on the machine are all newer than the files on the server (and most are not on the server at all). But nevertheless a large number of .u1conflict files are being generated. I do not understand why.

Below I provide a list of conflict files generated by u1 as well as my log that should record the process.

I'm having this same problem on another machine syncing with the same account. .u1conflict files are created despite the files being identical.

See here for example:

Hi Eduard!

I looked into the logs, as even as I can see that there're u1conflict files, there's no new conflicts.

Please, paste here the debug logs of when any file goes to conflict (and tell us which file, and what you were doing with that file from different machines).

Thank you very much!

Hi!

So, I'm marking this bug as invalid, as we can not reproduce it again and we don't have enough information to proceed.

Feel free to reopen it or open a new bug if something like this happens to you again.

Remember that if you have any doubt it may be quicker to contact us in the #ubuntuone IRC channel, on Freenode. You can ping me directly, my nick is facundobatista.

Thanks for your time and help!
