** Description changed:

  I am unsure if the bug is with openssh sftp client or within openssh-
  sftp-server
  
  When traversing an sftp server, I encounter issues for files and, in
  particular, directories containing the character "]". Tab completion
- does not escape the character, however, if I "cd" into a directory that
+ does not escape the character in sftp shell, however, in bash it will
+ escape the character for tab completion. If I "cd" into a directory that
  contains the character I cannot get any files with in that directory and
  I have to rename the directory outside of the sftp shell to remove the
  character in order to be able to correctly get files.
  
  Ex:
  
  sftp> cd Movie\ \[1080p]/
  sftp> ls
- Movie.1080p.mp4                                          
+ Movie.1080p.mp4
  sftp> get Movie.1080p.mp4
  File "/home/hitsuji/movies/Movie [1080p]/Movie.1080p.mp4" not found.
  sftp>
