I was able to use sftp to copy a small site: http://home.apache.org/~sebb/commons-build-plugin-1.5-RC1/
I used the "put -r" interactive command to do so. It takes quite a while as each file is sent separately. I've not tried uploading a very large site, so I don't know if that is feasible. It's not easy to automate as sftp is designed for interactive use only. AIUI scp uses the same underlying transport, but is designed for command-line use. It would make life simpler if scp were enabled as well. On 26 November 2015 at 19:16, Greg Stein <[email protected]> wrote: > A VCS cannot operate a test/staging web site.
