Given that requirement (atomicity) and its implication (same partition), would it not be better to create these temporary files in a 'tmp' subdirectory of their target directory (e.g. 'lisp/tmp' for el files in 'lisp' and 'lisp/calc/tmp' for el files in 'lisp/calc') instead of using random filenames in the target directory itself?Since they will be in the tree anyway, why does it matter in what subdirectory they will be deposited?
IMO it's easier to manage, both in .gitignore and to clean the temporary files. But it's just a suggestion (inspired by the way maildirs work).
