Instead of throwing:

Command '['scp', u'/home/vash/.config/ipython/profile_ssh/security/ipcontroller-client.json',     u'vash@host:.config/ipython/profile_ssh/security/ipcontroller-client.json']'

Should try:

ssh user@host mkdir -p -- ".config/ipython/profile_ssh/security"

indeed it should. Can I ask what the -- is for?

It's the limit between options/arguments and arguments list. After a double dash, ssh (and others commands) will not consider the arguments as possible options.

If you have the directory -foo on the current directory, and you want to display this directory you need to make:

ls -- -foo

I knew it prevented option parsing, I hadn't thought of directory names being problematic there. Thanks, I should have a PR for you before too long.

8 months is not exactly "before long", but I finally remembered to do this one (in #4977).
