- mehrdadn 7y agoIt's not clear to me if they're correct about that. The way it's written, it seems to be saying "my read of the POSIX standard suggests rename may not be atomic on crashes", rather than "there are POSIX implementations in common use that have been observed to have non-atomic renames on crashes".
