(Get the code!)
Hey, we'd really like it if the packaged version of curl supported sftp, it is unexpected from an end user standpoint when it doesn't, especially given that the man page specifically says so:
curl is a tool to transfer data from or to a server, using one of the
supported protocols (DICT, FILE, FTP, FTPS, GOPHER, HTTP, HTTPS, IMAP,
IMAPS, LDAP, LDAPS, POP3, POP3S, RTMP, RTSP, SCP, SFTP, SMTP, SMTPS,
TELNET and TFTP). The command is designed to work without user inter‐
action.
***
The end user shouldn't have to run curl -V to find out that this is not true for Ubuntu.
Looking through the comments here, it looks like the patches Robin Munn submitted actually fix the issues identified. What's the block on implementing this?
