| // Package replacefile is a small helper package focused directly at the |
| // problem of atomically "renaming" one file over another one. |
| // |
| // On Unix systems this is the standard behavior of the rename function, but |
| // the equivalent operation on Windows requires some specific operation flags |
| // which this package encapsulates. |
| // |
| // This package uses conditional compilation to select a different |
| // implementation for Windows vs. all other platforms. It may therefore |
| // require further fiddling in future if Terraform is ported to another |
| // OS that is neither Unix-like nor Windows. |
