Move all files between the same sftp server

Hi!

I need to copy files from a sftp server to our server, and then, move the files in the original dir to a subdir.

open sftp://user:password@server
cd /incoming/out
option exclude "processed/"
lcd \\server\sftp\IN\
mget *
close

Thats the part that works ok. But i dont know how to make the second step.

Maybe creating a mask? Something like this

cd
cd /incoming/out
put -filemask="|*/" *.gpg
mv *.gpg /incoming/out/processed/

give me the log message:

Re: Move all files between the same sftp server

mv * /incoming/out/processed/

I do not know what the purpose of *.gpg mask, as you have not mentioned that in your post.

Though the above solution is not transactionally safe. If new files are added during download, it will move even those files, although they were not downloaded.

There's an example for transactionally safe upload, with use of PowerShell script and WinSCP .NET assembly.
You can base your solution on that:
