Duplicate object found in source - ignoring - Google Photos

if this is the case than it is not disaster - you end up with all files in your destination.

And based on linked post there are no really duplicates at all - if you run:

rclone lsf "gp-pers:media/all/2023-04-03 {ACaye7iGrO1t7u989lGCPki_ZN_QOu2SyWKIU-iopewihbHcMiNgFLH4IM-VoDuHeyv878MwC7nV1_4HY2B7kQ6Xb4QkfM0wUg}.jpg"

you see one file only?

And you can then check in Photos:

In the rclone output, there are a hundreds of Duplicate object found in source - ignoring messages. Interestingly enough, if I search Google Photos for a sample of the filenames listed, I only ever get one photo or video back. There doesn't appear to be duplicates.

Real duplicates are shown on gdrive:

rclone lsf drive:test.txt
test.txt
