Indeed, if only one of these is used, then there’s no visual conflict.
But, for my eyes, both are vital information fo how well a backup is running.
I don’t even understand why irrelevant files should be displayed there, since only changed files are visible.
And why it should be a conflict.

Sorry for asking this, but I really love this software and, even if this behaviour is “not as intended”, maybe it should be though over again?

Since my backup is already old, do I just change the command line switch, or should I do something more?
