This message is coming from git, right? I see possibility that you 
committed the file, resaved the .lyx file within lyx and then 
got this message while workign with git. LyX is internally saving
to a new file and moves away the old one, so if git is tracking the
file handle instead of content (though I find this would be strange) 
it would explain the message.

Where exactly in the trac do you want to make that change?
