fsync(fd)
Force write of file with filedescriptor fd to disk. On Unix, this calls the
native fsync() function; on Windows, the MS _commit() function.
If you're starting with a Python file object f, first do f.flush(), and then
do os.fsync(f.fileno()), to ensure that all internal buffers associated with
f are written to disk. Availability: Unix, and Windows starting in 2.2.3.
That's the one you want. You're getting nailed on the meta-data which is not being flushed to disk before the rename.
Because the python documentation says nothing about close() calling fsync() automatically, I assume it does not.
Indeed. ;(
