           Summary: scp: pattern-driven copying process
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 4.7p1
          Platform: ix86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

         Component: scp
        AssignedTo: bitbucket at mindrot.org

Hello!

Would it be possible to implement a copying process with file patterns
to exclude and provide an option (something like -e "pattern1 pattern2
..." or -e "pattern1" -e "pattern2") for it?

Thank you for OpenSSH, guys!

You can do simple wildcarding and patterns through the shell (eg "scp
{a,b,c}.tar remotehost:") but other than that, it sounds like what you
want is rsync.

We've decided we're not going to be doing this.  We're not adding
features to scp, and rsync already provides this functionality.

Note also that you can also do this via some shell hackery, eg:

scp `echo * | egrep -v '.*excludethis.*'` remotehost:
