Does the latest curl library fully support resume of interrupted uploads to SMB
shares?
By fully I mean avoiding copying the first part or seeking to EOF over the SMB
connection.
If so should it also work for upload to SMB share as well as download?
To test it using curl 7.65.3 on MacOS Mohave I tried an interrupted download of
~ 2gb file from a windows share, which took approx. 35 seconds.
Then I deleted the file, started download again, interrupted with ctrl-c
halfway through, and ran same command again, note it says it is resuming at
byte xxxx.
The result was a file equal in size to the first part that made it when I
interrupted plus the size of the whole file. It seems to have copied the whole
file on the second try and appended to the first. In addition the total time
of the second part copy is the same as copying the whole file and the progress
shows same, even though the second one says it’s resuming at byte xxxx.
Seems like it’s trying to do the right thing but wondering if I should report
as an issue, or maybe it has something to do with the version of SMB used on
MacOS?
