TASK DESCRIPTION
I have tried with both upload.py and imagetransfer.py to get images to
English Wikisource where the filename exists at Wikicommons, and fail, being
told that the image already exists at Commons.
Example for imagetransfer.py
------------------------------------------------------------
0. Found image: [[File:The humanizing of commerce and industry; the Joseph
Fisher lecture in commerce, delivered in Adelaide, 9th May, 1919 (IA
humanizingofcomm00mussrich).pdf]]
============================================================
The image is already shared on commons:commons.

As a wiki admin I have the right `reupload-shared`—Override files on the
shared media repository locally—at the target wiki (enWS) so I should be able
to write but I cannot see an option to force this to occur. This is needed to
transfer files that cannot be hosted at Commons, and having to delete it first
is problematic.
Especially for imagetransfer which has the specific advertised purpose to
move from Commons to fail is counter intuitive.
