+Permission denied when moving files across remote filesystems
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Most SFTP servers return only a generic "failure" when failing to rename
+across filesystem boundaries (EXDEV).  sshfs normally converts this generic
+failure to a permission denied error (EPERM).  If the option ``-o
+workaround=renamexdev`` is given, generic failures will be considered EXDEV
+errors which will make programs like `mv(1)` attempt to actually move the
+file after the failed rename.
