Photos uploading library again after restoring Mac from backup
I restored my MacBook Pro after installing a new hard drive. The backup included the downloaded copies of my photo library. Upon launching Photos, it is now uploading the entire photo library... again!
I verified the original iCloud photo library is fine, I just don't want the system to churn away trying to upload copies. No copies actually appear, so I assume it verifies it's a copy and doesn't add it. All I can do is pause it for a day, but it just picks up where it left off.
Has anyone else encountered this behaviour?
MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)
