I'm using FFS to syncronize between my work SSD and my NAS.
I'm doing two way sync since I sometimes access files on the NAS directly with my Macbook when I don't have my SSD connected, and I want those changes on the SSD as well.

I don't understand why FFS wants to overwrite the left file (SSD) with the right file (NAS) even though the NAS file is clearly older...

Basically, the right-side file has changed since the last sync and the left-side file hasn't. Even though the left may be "newer", it isn't as recently updated as the right, even if "older".
