I just stumbled across this bug as well. Only noticed because I wasn't
get thumbnails of an image I had just copied into my Private directory.
I even tried using cp from the command line, so it's not a nautilus bug.
Unfortunately I have no idea which (if any) files I lost as a result of
this (I switched to btrfs over a month ago).
Unmounting and re-mounting the Private directory causes the files to
show up, even after deleting (I added the file, saw it was corrupted,
deleted it, unmounted, remounted, and it was there). It wasn't 0 bytes,
so there was data there. However it was still corrupt, and the md5sum
differed from the original.
I immediately copied everything out of my Private directory into a new
directory. Everything went OK except for the corrupted file. It gave me
input/output errors (on the original and the copies in .Trash), so I can
only hope that the rest of the data is not corrupt.
This is a VERY serious bug causing data loss with no warning to the user
that it's happening.

Title:
nautilus fails to copy to ecryptfs Private folder on btrfs - all files
0 bytes
Status in eCryptfs:
New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I've installed a fresh copy of 14.04 beta 2 on a brand-new SSD. I
used btrfs as the filesystem.
I set up a Private folder usying ecryptfs-setup-private.
I copied a few folders into the Private folder, and the entire
directory structure and subfolders are copied, including the files
themselves, yet every file contains 0 bytes.
However, I can create and save new files in the Private directory.
Also, folders and files can be correctly copied if I use the command line cp
-R.
Thanks,
Damon
