The quote option sends commands to the server to execute. If you send ~ in the
file name you thus assume that the server understands it. It isn't curl's
business to know nor care about.

I doubt that the ~ symbol is included in the SFTP spec as a magic marker for
the home dir of the user you're logged in as, but I'm not sure so I figure you
can check that. And check the docs for the SFTP server you use.
