AFAIK it's SFTP-server-dependent whether a umask will be applied. In any case, FFS sets the following values, which are currently hard-coded:
rw- r-- r-- [0644] default permissions for newly created files
rwx r-x r-x [0755] default permissions for newly created folders

Before version 10.19, the server's umask settings were valid, but starting with version 10.20, the server's umask settings are invalid.
