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"},"homepage":"https://github.com/isaacs/node-graceful-fs","_id":"graceful-fs@2.0.3","_shasum":"7cd2cdb228a4a3f36e95efa6cc142de7d1a136d0","_from":"https://registry.npmjs.org/graceful-fs/-/graceful-fs-2.0.3.tgz","_resolved":"https://registry.npmjs.org/graceful-fs/-/graceful-fs-2.0.3.tgz"}
