Here is the snippet from `create` in `S3AfileSystem`:
```
try {
// get the status or throw an FNFE
status = getFileStatus(path);
// if the thread reaches here, there is something at the path
if (status.isDirectory()) {
// path references a directory: automatic error
throw new FileAlreadyExistsException(path + " is a directory");
}
if (!overwrite) {
// path references a file and overwrite is disabled
throw new FileAlreadyExistsException(path + " already exists");
}
LOG.debug("Overwriting file {}", path);
} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
// this means the file is not found
}
```
Looks like `getFileStatus` is what breaks this logic and even setting the
overwrite flag does not help. At least, in the case of `S3AFileSystem`.
