Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: findutils-4.3.2-3
I digged a bit more into that and found that my problem is related
to the '-exec mv "{}" xxx \;'
when replaced by '-exec ls -lh "{}" \;' there is no problem...
Maybe what I was doing worked only by chance since it has
side-effect on the directory tree that is currently traversed.
Am I completely crasy or is there some other option like maybe
'-prune' that should be used for such cases ?
[trying with trivial exemple on linux]
OK it seems to work here.
maybe too trivial.
[trying on windows cygwin]
So I swapped the -depth with a -prune placed just before or after
the -exec and it does not work.
Oh well maybe I didn't RTFM hard enough...
