Hi All,
I’d like to modify sftp_mkdir() so it will optionally not use a mode for the 
new directory.  This allows the server to create the folder with the default 
permissions value which some users require. Unfortunately the sftp_mkdir() 
function requires a mode. So I’m curious to know how you think I should 
proceed? 

There are several possible solutions, my current super simple solution is to 
pass -1 as the mode which then causes sftp_mkdir to not set the permissions on 
the folder. That works, but it’s a bit ‘magical’ if you’re not reading the 
source. Another other option is to create a new API that doesn’t take a mode, 
but that also has its draw-backs. Any thoughts on how you all would like to see 
this structured?

Cheers,

Will
