Sounds like you've lost connectivity at some point and its retried the 
transfer, and not known what to do about the 'existing' (empty) files.

Delete the whole tree structure and try the transfer again.

It's not really safe to SFTP (or any tenuous-remote copying) over an 
existing production directory tree.  SFTP first to a temp dir, and then 
login and cp -a
