sftp: Connect using a predefined host (in `~/.ssh/config`).
$ sftp ${host}
try on your machine
The command "sftp ${host}" is used to establish a secure FTP (File Transfer Protocol) connection to a remote host.
- "sftp" stands for Secure File Transfer Protocol, which is a protocol used for securely transferring files over a network.
- "${host}" represents a variable that should be replaced with the actual hostname or IP address of the remote host you want to connect to.
By executing this command in a terminal or command prompt, you can initiate an interactive session with the sftp client program, allowing you to securely transfer files between your local system and the remote host.
