> While HDFS and other filesystems throw a {{FileAlreadyExistsException}} if you try to create a file that exists and you have set {{overwrite=false}}, {{RawLocalFileSystem}} throws a plain {{IOException}}. This makes it impossible to distinguish a create operation failing from a fixable problem (the file is there) and something more fundamental.
