           Summary: sftp does not abort when commands given via -b fail
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: older versions
          Platform: ix86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: sftp
        AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: spin at avalon.net


The man page states that sftp -b will abort when commands (including get) fail.
 However, when I give sftp a list of get -P commands via the -b option it
continues unconcerned when the requested file doesn't exist and it doesn't exit
with a error code either (which would be enough for me.)

# /usr/bin/sftp -b /tmp/files roger at remote && echo ok
