1925	filesize is zero after upload via sshfs/sftp	cehteh	cehteh	"When mounting tahoe via sshfs files copied into the directory will first uppload (tried with cp and rsync) be added and visible in the parent directory and then be empty with size 0.

This only happens on one node (client+storage) here, coincidentally an older debian/squeeze box.

After some investigation this happens when using the sftp client:

Retrieving works:
{{{

}}}

Storing something exits:
