the solution is

C#

using (XmlWriter writer = XmlWriter.Create(filepath))
            {
                XNamespace ns = "http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/";
                var doc = new XDocument(
                    new XElement(ns + "VersioningConfiguration"));
                doc.WriteTo(writer);
            }
