Is it really the end, though? Maybe we need to maintain support of SCP
protocol for interoperation with servers and clients that don't do SFTP?

Howdy all,
I know development on SCP is discouraged but being that it's still
in wide use I thought I would do some work some of my users have
been asking for and allow SCP to resume from a partial transfer.
Would it be possible to instead reimplement SCP in terms of SFTP, and
then add
this feature to SFTP? My understanding is that such a
re-implementation is
something many people have wanted for quite a while.
Yes, and there are patches to do this awaiting review:
https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/pull/194
-d
Sooner those get merged, the better, IMO. I for one will celebrate the end
of the SCP protocol.
Sincerely,
Demi
