Hi all,
I'm attempting to delete some directories and I want to be able to exclude a directory called 'logs' from being deleted.
This is my basic find operation (without the exclusion)
# find . -type d |tail -10 ./d20160124-1120-df8mfb/deployments ./d20160124-1120-df8mfb/releases ./d20160131-16993-vazqg5 ./d20160131-16993-vazqg5/metadata ./d20160131-16993-vazqg5/deployments ./d20160131-16993-vazqg5/releases ./logs ./d20160203-27735-1tqbjh6 ./d20160125-1120-1yccr9p ./d20160131-16993-1yf9lnc
I'm just tailing the output so that you have an idea of what's going on without taking up the whole page. :)
If I try to exlclude the logs directory with the prune command I get back no results.
root@ops-manager:/tmp/tmp# find . -type d -prune -o -name 'logs' -print root@ops-manager:/tmp#
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, Tim
