SFTP support
We could, but I mostly feel like it's missing the point, seeing as if you have SSH, you probably have shell, in which case you can deploy your projects in any number of eminently more reasonable ways. I wouldn't object to a non-invasive patch but it's not something I would add personally.
We just came across a project where deoployment to the production server needs SFTP but we cannot have GIT installed there. The server is managed not by us but by the client and their politics don't allow installing anything more...
If you could give some advices as to how (and where) create the patch? Are there any Python SFTP libraries available?
Or maybe some other contributor could create such a patch? :)
Another vote, one of my main providers has sftp for security, but hasn't enabled ssh access.
I know this is old but I would really like to see this done, just because you have Shell access doesn't mean you have access to Sudo for example hosting company like Fasthosts allow you Shell access but only as a normal use with no Sudo
+1
With rssh that is often used for restricted shell access, it's possible to restrict sftp, scp, rsync and others independently, thus making a sftp-compatible version of this amazing tool sought after.
+1 I have SSH-Access also but not access to sudo and git is not installed.
