Bug description

I have a backup script that creates numbered daily backups. When I try to let the desktop client sync this folder ALL the files get deleted after the script runs.

If I have file1, file2, file3... file3 is deleted, file2 is renamed to file3, file1 is renamed to file2 and a new file1 is created. A pretty standard way to keep the last 3 backups.

The client recognises that the files have been removed, but not that they were replaced by new files.

To me it seems like the same issue as #5420, showing that the same problem exists with files too.

Steps to reproduce

Create a script that quickly renames a bunch of files in the manor that I described.

Expected behavior

The new files should be synced not deleted.
