24/// is, creating an OutputBuffer for a file may immediately remove the file.
25/// If the FileOutputBuffer is committed, the target file's content will become
26/// the buffer content at the time of the commit. If the FileOutputBuffer is
27/// not committed, the file will be deleted in the FileOutputBuffer destructor.
