title: Cloning a Git repository over SFTP
body: <p>I get a fatal error every time I try to clone my Git repository:</p>
  
  <p>I run this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ git clone sftp://foo@bar.ca/git/foobar.git
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and I get this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'sftp'
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I'm trying to clone from one server to another, both of which use SSH authentication.</p>
  
  <p>Is there something I need to install to enable this SFTP remote helper?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer!</p>
