Annoying Backup Detected message

I occasionally receive a pop-up box titled "Backup Detected" followed by "This sync would reset the files to an earlier time..." and I have a choice of keeping the local file or accepting the sync.
Trouble is the file in question is not named so I cannot make an informed decision as how to act.
More info would be greatly appreciated.

Please report such issues directly to the bugtracker:

https://github.com/owncloud/client/issues

the 2.2.3-client, which is expected to be released soon, fixes some issues with the backup detection:

If you have some time and a good backup, you can try the testpilot of the 2.2.3-version and see if this happens with this version as well.
