The client can resume a copy operation if the connection to the server
fails (for whatever reason). Itcontinues to re-establish a connection and
continue where it left off. This is limited to a recovery window of about
an hour. However, if you kill the client then recovery is not possible
(that's what #307 was about).

I'm rather confused about this and would like to resume interrupted/partial transfers, but it sounds like that is not possible according to your response to #307?
