Hi Team,
We have created one custom global application and moved some files from global application in to scoped global app.
We linked our instance to GIT repository. Now we have imported the files on target instance(test) using import from source control. Here in target instance, it is creating more files inside the scope global application.
ex. source instance contains 73757 files in scoped global app when it moved to target instance it is containing 1303710 files in it. Please help to understand this behavior.
Any help will be much appreciated

@Ankur Bawiskar any idea how we can further investigate or avoid creating this file in target instance. As we are planning to move this application to next instances it may lead multiple issues.
