Description

Does SftpClient supports upload/download resume options, i.e. defined by SFTP protocol specifications commands reput & reget?
I need to upload really huge files (from 2GB to 20GB) and these features will be extremely useful.
Can anyone suggest a solution?
Thank you!

Research direction

Start by reviewing SftpClient's upload and download APIs and how they handle the SFTP commands reput and reget. Determine whether resume behavior can be defined for large transfers, and consider the work complete only when the requested upload and download resume options are clearly supported and documented.
