Package: openssh-client Version: 1:7.9p1-9 Followup-For: Bug #76056 Hi scp maintainers,
I know the original bug is VERY old (19 years), but I see some other duplicates about this topic, and this bug is tagged 'wontfix'. I with scp had '--no-clobber' (skip files already at the target), and '--interactive' (prompt before overwrite), similar to `cp`. And because of that '--force' for completion. '-f' is probably a bad choice, as it might clash (in theory) with `ssh -f` (connect, prompt for authenticate, and then continue in background). Just my 0.02$, Regards, Witold -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages openssh-client depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii dpkg 1.19.5 ii libc6 2.28-8 ii libedit2 3.1-20181209-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.17-2 ii libselinux1 2.8-1+b1 ii libssl1.1 1.1.1b-1 ii passwd 1:4.5-1.1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 Versions of packages openssh-client recommends: ii xauth 1:1.0.10-1 Versions of packages openssh-client suggests: pn keychain <none> pn libpam-ssh <none> pn monkeysphere <none> ii ssh-askpass 1:1.2.4.1-10 -- no debconf information
