an optional entity tag for the current GFile, or NULL to ignore. [allow-none]
TRUE if a backup should be created
a set of GFileCreateFlags
optional GCancellable object, NULL to ignore. [allow-none]
a GFileIOStream or NULL on error. Free the returned object with g_object_unref(). [transfer full]
GException on failure.
Returns an output stream for overwriting the file in readwrite mode, possibly creating a backup copy of the file first. If the file doesn't exist, it will be created. For details about the behaviour, see g_file_replace() which does the same thing but returns an output stream only. Note that in many non-local file cases read and write streams are not supported, so make sure you really need to do read and write streaming, rather than just opening for reading or writing.
