> When running {{hadoop fs -put}},  {{FsShell}} creates a {{._COPYING_.}} file on the target directory, and then renames it to target file when the write is done. However, for some targeted systems, such as S3, Azure and Swift, a partial failure write request (i.e., {{PUT}}) has not side effect, while the {{rename}} operation is expensive. 
> {{FileSystem}} should expose some characteristics so that the operation such as {{CommandWithDestination#copyStreamToTarget()}} can detect and choose the right way to do.
