As I understand exact meaning of phrase "File %s seems to have unresolved conflicts" (note *seems* word here) is a supposition. It is not an equivalent of "may have" (but "may not have"). So, I agree sentence must rephrased but supposition must be retained. Something like "Файл %s, похоже, содержит неразрешенные конфликты" or "Файл %s, видимо, содержит неразрешенные конфликты" or better "Предположительно файл %s содержит неразрешенные конфликты" (stay official but supposing)
