This commit introduces WrapCopier, which returns a function that implements exactly the functionality of atomic.WriteFile, except with a custom copier. This can be useful when some custom copy behavior (other...
First off, thank you @natefinch and all for putting this tool together! I have the following usecase and wonder if this project can be extended to support it: today, `atomic.WriteFile()`...
In security sensitive use cases, it would be helpful to allow the caller to know if deleting the temp file failed, so it could retry after a delay, or at...
Yet another attempt at using the options pattern as a better version of #18 after the cleanup in #19.
Something about #12 didn't feel right or clean enough, so here's an alternative approach using the options pattern instead. While this increases complexity a bit, it comes with the benefit...
