How to resume scp with partially copied files?

You should use rsync over ssh

rsync -P -e ssh remoteuser@remotehost:/remote/path /local/path

The key option is -P, which is the same as --partial --progress

Other options, such -a (for archive mode), and -z (to enable compression) can also be used.
