Public bug reported:

In previous versions of dput, the sftp method would use a temporary file
name while uploading. For example:

linux-headers-4.4.61-20-ev3dev-
rpi_1~1_armhf.deb.tmp.1492202382.950381994.19485.970636164

In bionic with package version 1.0.1ubuntu1, it no longer does this.

I have a remote script that it triggered by a file system watcher that
looks for the creation of a new .changes file. Since the file is created
with this line:

with sftp_client.file(remote_path, "w") as remote_fileobj:

the initial file is empty and as a result, my script sent me this
message from reprepro:

Unexpected empty file 'raspberrypi-firmware_1.20180409-1ev3dev1_armhf.changes'!
There have been errors!

This script was working with previous versions of dput.
