Python 3.7.2 ftputil 5.0.2
I'm renaming an existing file, and then calling .path.exists(path) do check if old file does not exist. But exists and other methods, like stat, returns cached data about already deleted file:
ftpHost.path.exists("/ftp/file.tmp") # False
ftpHost.upload("/my/local/file", "/ftp/file.tmp")
ftpHost.path.exists("/ftp/file.tmp") # True
ftpHost.rename("/ftp/file.tmp", "/ftp/file")
ftpHostt.path.exists("/ftp/file") # True
This is because rename method does not invalidate the cache:

+++ b/ftputil/host.py

Hello ~dolfinus, thanks for the report and the patch! I plan to work on the ticket (including test updates) next weekend.
~sschwarzer I've checked changes you made, it's working now. Thanks!
Thanks for the feedback! :-)
Changes in the recent commits:
- Invalidate stat cache entries in
FTPHost.rename.- In
FTPHost.remove,FTPHost.rmdir,FTPHost.rmtreeandFTPHost.rename: If an exception occurs during the operation, invalidate the cache for the affected file system items. The idea is that even if there was an exception, the server might have finished the operation but failed when responding.
Released ftputil 5.0.4 with the fix.
