Description

Sometimes, the agent fails at copying folder, and for odd reason create a file (happens in very high load condition)
When it does that, every subsequent runs will leave the invalid file rather than replacing by a folder, which effectively leave the agent in invalid state

https://docs.cfengine.com/docs/3.6/reference-promise-types-files.html#type_check could be a solution for reparing in subsequent runs

Setting type_check => "false" doesn't solve the issue at all :(

The right solution is to use "move_obstruction" in the promise !
