@@ -362,36 +362,3 @@ We would like to add:
   - An easier way to use this from guestfish.
   - Direct access to the /dev/mapper device (eg. if it contains
     anything apart from VGs).
-
-Recursive upload / download of multiple files
----------------------------------------------
-
-virt-tar is really clumsy to use, and upload/download in guestfish can
-only do single files.  tar-in in guestfish can upload multiple files,
-but only if you have prepared a tarball in advance.
-
-What we really need is a method which is as easy to use as 'scp' and
-'scp -r'.
-
-Can we add this as a command in guestfish?  This will be more useful
-since users will already need to be in guestfish in order to create
-target directories, review what they've done etc.  It could be a meta-
-command such as:
-
-  copy-in-recursive localdir remotedir
-  copy-out-recursive remotedir localdir
-
-which would hide use of tgz-in etc.
-
-Other thoughts on this:
-
-virt-cp or virt-rcp or virt-copy or virt-scp or ...?
-
-virt-copy *.c *.h GuestName:/tmp/
-
-virt-copy -r dir/ GuestName:/tmp/
-
-virt-copy GuestName:/tmp/foo* .
-
-virt-copy disk.img:/tmp/bar* otherdisk.img:/tmp
-( probably not because it requires multiple libguestfs connections)
