------- Comment #1 from djm at mindrot.org  2006-04-18 15:07 -------
We have this "half right" now, in that 

scp hosta:foo hosta:bar /tmp/abc

will check that /tmp/abc is a directory, but there is no way to know a priori
that :

scp hosta:* /tmp/abc

will yield multiple files. I suppose we could modify sink() to raise an error
on the 2nd file transferred, but that isn't optimal either.

this is another limitation of the stupid scp "protocol"
