Linux: Move all files from subdirectories to current directory
by admin on Jul.29, 2013, under Linux (Ubuntu)
I’ve had many folders containing different files and wanted to move all of these to the current directory without having to enter each path seperately and moving the files manually. So I simply executed the following bash one-liner:
mv Pinky.and.Brain.S01E*/* .
It moves all files from all of these subdirectories to the current directory.
And in order to delete the (now empty) folders I executed the following command:
rm -r Pinky.and.Brain.S01E*/
