Bug Description

ubuntuone-client:
  Installed: 1.4.99+r728~maverick1

STR:

1. Find a file on a remote storage that will take a while to be cut/pasted
2. Cut the file on remote storage using Nautilus
3. Paste the file to Ubuntu One directory

The file to hold the contents will be created immediately and will have current mtime. Upon completion of the operation the file will change its mtime and from syncdaemon's point of view will travel back in time.

WORKAROUND: update file modification time using touch:

$ touch filename.ext

Here are the logs for my attempt to reproduce this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/506822/
