sftp put -r not working, terminal prints "Entering myDirectory" and then nothing happens


Well - I'm currently running into the same problem.It seems that this OpenSSH bug report may have a lot to do with it:

http://lists.mindrot.org/pipermail/openssh-bugs/2016-January/015929.html

I'm running on Ubuntu 15.10, OpenSSH version 6.9p1. They seem to have fixed it in this commit from Feb 11, but I'm not sure yet how to get it running in my current environment.


Using

put /mydir/*

worked for me.
