SFTP fails to download empty files
When downloading a directory, the app fails to fetch empty files, for example the __init__.py files in python packages. The error message is always that it hit maximum number of redirects, but I don’t think that’s the actual problem, I’ve never seen this error for anything else than empty files.
Great app otherwise!

Thanks, I can reproduce the problem. I'll try to find out what's going on.
Textastic uses libcurl for SFTP downloads.
This looks like a bug in curl - I could reproduce it using the curl command line tool.
I reported this issue at https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/19165
This was fixed in libcurl and will be fixed in the next update of Textastic.
Thank you for looking into this, and for the detailed issue! 👍 It’ll be interesting to see the response (I use libcurl too for some of my projects).
This is fixed in Textastic 10.8.3, which was just released.
