Conflict every few seconds
neilscott opened this issue · comments
Description
If I am writing in FS Notes, the app creates separate conflict versions every few seconds e.g.
(CONFLICT 20231005T070858)
(CONFLICT 20231005T070905)
I don't understand what is happening here. It happens in both ios 17 and on macos sonoma, but not on Ventura.
To Reproduce
- Go to 'App'
- Write
- See a new conflicted duplicate page created
Expected behavior
Only create a conflict if there is a conflict
FSNotes version
Version 6.4.2 (584)
macOS/iOS version
Sonoma/17
Additional context
I use iCloud Drive for storage.
I have tried resetting GIT but would happily remove it.
No response
Definitely the same issue, I'm struggling last week. Almost every change raises conflict constantly.
For now just moved out of iCloud Drive.
Also experimenting now with fresh copy in iCloud from scratch.
I can also very consistently reproduce this.
I've noticed that every conflicted version is always out of date. So actually the last version (without CONFLICT mark in file name) is the most recent one.
Same here. FSNotes 6.4.2 (584), macOS 14.0 on an M1 Max Mac Studio. Notes stored in iCloud Drive. I've turned off iCloud's "Optimize Storage" so all files are always local.
For me, when the conflict occurs there's also a split-second hang with a beach-ball cursor.
Would strongly prefer not to have to move my notes out of iCloud, so I hope there's a solution. Thank you.
@willxie this is not FSNotes issue. Conflicts generates on the iCloud Drive side.
@glushchenko Thank you, last version seems to be working as expected 👍
@willxie What'd worked for me is to switch off conflicts resolution. Since I've turned it off in latest version of FSNotes, no more duplicates are created:

Turning off conflict resolution worked for me. Thanks for the suggestion!
Automatic conflicts resolution is disabled by default in the last build. You don't have to do anything.
Should we report this bug to Apple? I haven't been able to find much info but after reading this blog post I'm slightly concerned that turning off conflict resolution could result in the loss of data.

Do you know how to reproduce the problem sustainably? I, for example, do not have this behavior.
If I check the box, then it happens without fail. Steps:
- Enable "Automatic iCloud Drive Conflicts Resolution"
- Create a new note, or open an existing note.
- Type a few lines
- Watch conflict file be created
- Type a few more lines
- Watch another conflict file be created
And repeat. I notice that when the new file is created, in Finder, a cloud icon with a little exclamation point briefly appears on the main doc.
Notes are stored in ~/Library/Mobile Documents/iCloud~co~fluder~fsnotes/Documents
Permissions on all my regular notes are set to 644, but the CONFLICT files are set to 777.
On the plus side, so far I haven't seen any CONFLICT files that contain newer data than the original file.

+1, so do I. I've tested a lot, and each time the most recent version is in original file, not in conflict one.
I'm experiencing this with iOS app, but I don't see a conflict resolution setting in the iOS app
I find when I use the iOS app and I am typing, it sends me to the bottom of the page I am writing in. Possibly the moment it syncs with iCloud?
@neilscott exactly. I was meaning to add mention of that
@nth-chile this is fixed long time ago. Just update macOS and iOS apps.
I updated my iPhone to 17.1 and it seems to have fixed the issue @neilscott
