The sftp server and protocol don't provide any upload operation at all. 
They provide very basic block operations that the client uses to upload
files.

If you want atomic file upload, then you should start by asking the
author of your client. OpenSSH can implement it only for our sftp client,
which I suspect many people aren't using.
