right. Someone (don't remember who) has answered it by saying that what
Tez wants is not possible on a POSIX filesystem.

What everybody else seems to be missing is that Tez is not talking about
modifying repositories, or about atomic commits. He "simply" wants to
atomically change two arbitrary files in a simple directory on a simple
filesystem. Arch cannot do that either.
Or maybe I have misunderstood what everybody is talking about. :-)
Bye,
