remote directory create does not work, if remotepath startswith / (win) about gulp-sftp HOT 7 CLOSED

I think it is in parents, since parents tries to identify the os (which in the client case is windows), but target is something else

I tried to fix this, giving parents:

var fileDirs = parents(dirname,{platform:'unix'})

this works, but not in all cases (if you have sub-sub dirs with empty dirs, there is also an error)

I will try to provide a pull request, but I maybe need some time for this ...

Thanks for the clear steps to recreate. I'll see if there's anything on this side that can address it.

I encountered this same issue as well and just used a temporary hack to get this working for me. I don't know where that heading forward slash is getting trimmed (as I unfortunately don't have the time yet), so i just add the forward slash back to the beginning of the path if it's not there. Obviously this is not a catch all fix, but in my environment (windows client, linux remote) it works well enough for my purposes.

Added after Line 254

if (d[0] != '/') {
  d = '/' + d;
}

I had this issue too.

Solved it by creating a fork (https://github.com/marcallkz/gulp-sftp) and replacing the 'parents' module with a simpler one I created just to break the path at the slashes.

The module I've created is at https://github.com/marcallkz/pathwalker

I've also had this issue.

Guys, a PR would have been appreciated. 1da970e should take care of your issue. I'm publishing the update now.

@marcallkz - please post a PR next time. npm won't see your repo and it takes the same work to merge your changes in.

Still having the issue.
