Caveats
-------
Some SSH servers do not support atomically overwriting the destination
when renaming a file. In this case you will get an error when you
attempt to rename a file and the destination already exists. A
workaround is to first remove the destination file, and then do the
rename. SSHFS can do this automatically if you call it with `-o
workaround=rename`. However, in this case it is still possible that
someone (or something) recreates the destination file after SSHFS has
removed it, but before SSHFS had the time to rename the old file. In
this case, the rename will still fail.
