it is time for my annual head-slapping over scp.
is there any plausible alternative to scp? mostly its all fine,
but i am struggling over having to do an additional ssh
afterwards to confirm teh file got there (or to let
the other side know its done).
any reasonable command would do something with the file modes
or (like ftp) allow you to rename the file (say from foo! to foo) after the
copy finished.
of course, the wretched scp faq says "no changes; it has to be like rcp"
which is fine and all, except rcp is a very old piece of crap.
surely we can do better?

You could always use sshfs and use mv
