Proposal for SFTP extension to include user name and group name in file attributes
...ted.
However, I find myself wishing for the name-based owner and group
handling specified in version 4 of the spec[3]. As a possible
compromise, if I submitted a patch to add an OpenSSH-specific extension
to return the user name & group name, how likely is it to be accepted?
This would use the extended_type:extended_data mechanism[4] present in
version 3.
This functionality could be useful to clients such as sshfs[5], allowing
file systems to be mounted from other servers with different uid/gid
mappings.
