 options which do  not rename files when committing work or when copying data
 to S3, but instead write directly to the final destination.
 
+## Rename not behaving as "expected"
+
+S3 is not a filesystem. The S3A connector mimics rename by
+
+* HEAD then LIST of source path
+* HEAD then LIST of destination path
+* File-by-file copy of source objects to destination.
+  Parallelized, with page listings of directory objects and issuing of DELETE 
requests.
+* Post-delete recreation of destination parent directory marker, if needed.  

Review comment:
       oops. fixed

> h3. race condition in delete/rename overlap
> If you have multiple threads on a system doing rename operations, then one 
> thread doing a delete(dest/subdir) may delete the last file under a subdir, 
> and, before its listed and recreated any parent dir marker -other threads may 
> conclude there's an empty dest dir and fail.
> This is most likely on an overloaded system with many threads executing 
> rename operations, as with parallel copying taking place there are many 
> threads to schedule and https connections to pool. 
> h3. failure reporting
> the classic \{[rename(source, dest)}} operation returns \{{false}} on certain 
> failures, which, while somewhat consistent with the posix APIs, turns out to 
> be useless for identifying the cause of problems. Applications tend to have 
> code which goes
> {code}
> if (!fs.rename(src, dest)) throw new IOException("rename failed");
> {code}
> While ultimately the rename/3 call needs to be made public (HADOOP-11452) it 
> would then need a adoption across applications. We can do this in the hadoop 
> modules, but for Hive, Spark etc it will take along time.
> Proposed: a switch to tell S3A to stop downgrading certain failures (source 
> is dir, dest is file, src==dest, etc) into "false". This can be turned on 
> when trying to diagnose why things like Hive are failing.
> Production code: trivial 
> * change in rename(), 
> * new option
> * docs.
> Test code: 
> * need to clear this option for rename contract tests
> * need to create a new FS with this set to verify the various failure modes 
> trigger it.

> If this works we should do the same for ABFS, GCS. Hey, maybe even HDFS
