Try using Back In Time instead of Deja Dup. It works perfectly.

Bug description:
  On Raring using deja-dup to backup to Ubuntu one, when I add a particular git 
repository to the folders to backup and then start the backup, the process sits 
for some minutes at the start of the upload operation and then fails with a 
popup "Backup Failed. Giving up on request after 5 attempts last status 400 bad 
request".  The progress bar does not get started as far as I can see.
  While it is saying that it is uploading I can see in System Monitor that data 
is being continuously sent, but after the failure there are no new files on U1.

  By a process of elimination I determined that it is the objects
  directory (which itself contains a large number of subdirectories each
  containing a number of small files) that is causing the problem.  I
  attempted to determine whether it was a particular file or folder that
  was causing the problem but it seems not to be consistent.  I thought
  that I had found a particular subfolder causing the problem, I cleared
  .cache/deja_dup, and then it accepted that folder.  However when I
  then put back the rest of the subfolders it failed again.

  I copied the complete git repository to another machine (running up to
  date Ubuntu 12.04) and backing up from there (to a different U1
  account) deja_dup has no problems.

  I also notice that on Raring it  always takes a long time in the
  verification phase even when only a trivial change has been made.  It
  is as if it is downloading the whole repository, but whether that is a
  related problem I do not know.
