Bug #1840 has been flagged as duplicate, there is a similar issue with the transfer command and other special chars (~ for the target directory or dir/*), the title could be made less specific if that's the same issue
My problem seems related to this issue. with version 1.8.0. I can not transfer hidden file with dot in its name like .vimrc.
$ multipass transfer config.yaml master-0:/home/ubuntu/config.yaml # this is ok
$ multipass transfer .vimrc master-0:/home/ubuntu/.vimrc
transfer failed: [sftp push] error opening file for reading: Permission denied
@WLBF it's unrelated actually. The snap confinement prevents us from reading hidden files for security reasons:

This is still the case. I suppose we should just follow whatever scp does in here.
Bumped priority because this can have unexpected consequences:
$ multipass mount adir/ prodigious-mamba:with\$USER
mount failed: The following errors occurred:
error mounting "/home/ubuntu/with$USER": Process returned exit code: 1: sshfs: bad mount point `/home/ubuntu/withubuntu': No such file or directory
$ multipass exec -n prodigious-mamba -- ls
snap withroot
Are people still using Multipass? I switched to WSL and Docker because Multipass had too many issues that I could never fully resolve.
@letanloc1998 Kudos to you for an unhelpful comment for this particular issue! 🙄

5 years but still not fixed
We're not idle and have been improving Multipass in many other ways. But we don't have infinite capacity and we need to choose some things over others. Whatever priorities we choose, they can never align with every user's needs or desires. Hopefully they align with some.
In your case @letanloc1998, hopefully there is nothing you're entitled to that you aren't getting?
This is open source, so feel free to contribute back.

Yes, and that was pointed out by @ricab just previous to your unhelpful comment. If you are no longer using Multipass, why are you even here making unhelpful comments? It's a small team with big ambitions. Please add something positive or just let it go.
