Transfer to SourceForge

At this point you can start transferring files to SourceForge. The make -C yum sftp-sf can be used to simplify this task (NOTE: It defaults to Nautilus if the DISPLAY variable is set, unset DISPLAY to remain on the command line).

[root@nst-dev-32 repo]# (unset DISPLAY; make -C yum sftp-sf)
make: Entering directory `/root/repo/yum'
if [ -z "" ]; then \
	  sftp pblankenbaker,nst@frs.sourceforge.net:/home/frs/project/n/ns/nst/; \
	else \
	  nautilus ssh://pblankenbaker,nst@frs.sourceforge.net/home/frs/project/n/ns/nst/; \
	fi

NOTE: In the past, we've had user's start to download files before they were fully transferred. To avoid this, you can transfer the files to the OldFiles directory first and then use the rename command to make the files "instantly" appear in the download area.
