Bug ID: 3611
Summary: scp -r does not handle sym links to directories
correctly
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 8.7p1
Hardware: amd64
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P5
Component: scp
Assignee: unassigned-bugs@mindrot.org
Reporter: ryman559@hotmail.com

Example:
scp -r /tmp/dir1/ `hostname`:/tmp/scp
/tmp/dir1/dir3 is not a regular file
Uploading of file /tmp/dir1/dir3 to /tmp/scp/dir1/dir3 failed!
failed to upload directory /tmp/dir1 to /tmp/scp/dir1

ls -lart /tmp/dir1/dir3
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Sep 5 11:33 /tmp/dir1/dir3 -> ../dir2/dir3/

Works with -O:

scp -O -r `hostname`:/tmp/dir1/ /tmp/scp
abc

I assume it has something to do with the new protocol. Apologies if
this is already fix, but didn't find anything when I looked.

Thanks
