The SFTP version command

The SFTP version command is used to return the version of the SFTP server you're interacting with. It's a simple yet powerful command when working with SFTP servers, especially in situations where you need to troubleshoot compatibility issues or when planning upgrades. It's important to note that not all SFTP servers may support the 'version' command directly from an SFTP session. The output will typically display the version of the SFTP protocol the server is using. Please be aware that this could vary widely depending on the SFTP server software.
