Otherwise it becomes a noop.\n* ignores `EINVAL` and `EPERM` errors in `chown`, `fchown` or\n `lchown` if the user isn't root.\n* makes `lchmod` and `lchown` become noops, if not available.\n* retries reading a file if `read` results in EAGAIN error.\n\nOn Windows, it retries renaming a file for up to one second if `EACCESS`\nor `EPERM` error occurs, likely because antivirus software has locked\nthe directory.\n", "readmeFilename": "README.md", "bugs": { "url": "https://github.com/isaacs/node-graceful-fs/issues" }, "_id": "graceful-fs@2.0.1", "_from": "graceful-fs@~2.0.0" }
