Let's also do a tmp.file().flush()?;

That would call the Write::flush method, which for File is a no-op on all mainstream platforms including all that cc supports right now: Windows, Unix, and wasi. If you intend the call as precaution against adding a BufWriter or something in the future, sure, I can add it. However, if you want to surface I/O errors that would otherwise be detected while closing the file and ignored by dropping, we'll need File::sync_all as discussed in File's documentation. Which option do you prefer?

Thanks for investigating this, I'd like file.flush()?; and file.sync_data()?; to be called.
I don't think we need file.sync_metadata()?;, since it's a tempfile.

Let's change this method, to fn take_file() -> Option<File>, so we don't need the close() method

Thank you! Just two suggestions I'd want you to change |
