Change current working directory? #552

Closed a-urth closed 1 year ago

a-urth commented 1 year ago

Am I missing something or there is no way to change working directory? If so then why?

Its possible to implement it on a client side of course but it just brings what is looks like unnecessary complication.

SFTP does not really itself have any concept of a working directory. The working directory that you see in sftp clients is always—as you call it—a client side implementation.

We chose to keep a closer adherence to SFTP itself, rather than adding a working directory concept ourselves in our abstraction level.
