Hello,

I've recently been tasked with a relatively large Fileshare migration and there are several shares with more than 30 millions files, which means that the comparison process is taking forever.
I noticed that when the comparison process is running, there is a lock file in the origin, which had me wondering if in these cases if FFS actually locks the origin.

What these files actually do?
