[linux] Is there a way to continue broken scp (secure copy) command process in Linux?

I am copying 7.5 GB file to a remote server using scp command. At some point in time file transfer breaks and I have to start all over again.

Is the temporary amount of file being transferred completely lost ? Can I somehow restart the transfer from where it has stopped at previous attempt ? If not, is there some standard Unix command line file transfer command for doing that ?

This is all you need.

 rsync -e ssh file host:/directory/.
