title: how to use scp to copy files and not overwrite files in the distination with same name
body: <p>I am writing an automated test script that will copy the files from the remote location and make changes to it before copying them to another remotely connected machine.I want to copy a file from a remote machine to my local machine. I am using scp. It was all good until I found out that I have another file in my local with the same name. I either have to change the name of the file in the source or in the destination every time I use scp. I want to avoid this overhead. Is there any hack to just copy the file with the name that we desire to? Like for example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>scp filename user@sysname:/path/ dest_filename
  </code></pre>
