copying multiple files to multiple directories

Hi All, I have two directories that has some files, some of the files are common to both of them like :

Code: ls -l dir1

file1 file2 file3

Code: ls -l dir2

file1 file2 file3 file4 file5 Now i want to get the files from dir2 that are not present in dir1 (means i want to get file3,file4,file5).

Hi All,

Please help. I have got a file which contains a listing of a file and some directories after it, one by one. I am calling this file xyz.txt here

Code: file1 dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 file2 dir5 dir6 dir7 dir8 file3 dir9 dir10 dir11 dir12 Requirement is that I have to pick the files one by one from xyz.txt file i.e. file1 then file2 then file3 ...

I have a list of relative paths such as this:

dir1 dir2 dir2/dir3 dir2/file1 dir3/file2 dir3/dir4 dir3/dir4/file3

In the example above, the specifier dir2/file1 (for example) is redundant, because the dir2 entry would include this file.

Want I want to do, essentially, is remove redundant paths from a given list of paths.

I have been using awk to sum up multiple files, this is used to sum up the summary of server log parsing values, it really does speed up the final overall count but I have hit a minor problem and the typical examples I have hit on the web have not helped.

Here is the example:

cat file1 aa 1 bb 2 cc 3 ee 4

cat file2 aa 1 bb 2 cc 3 dd 4

cat file3 aa 1 bb 2 cc 3 ff 4

And the script:

cat test.

I have about 9000 files in a directory and I want to mv them into 90 files in 100 directories by filename order, ignoring any remainder. In Copy multiple files from filename X to filename Y?, Caleb wrote in a comment:

If the object is just to batch them, there is a MUCH easier way!

I have 2 directories

DIR1 contains file1, file2 DIR2 contains file1, file3

Is there a way to replicate DIR1 to DIR2. means, if i give,

cp -r DIR1/* DIR2

file1 in DIR2 gets replaced with file1 in DIR1. file2 in gets copied to DIR2. file3 remains untouched.

But, i need DIR2 to be the exact replica of DIR1.

Hi,

I need help in shell scripting. If someone can help me, that would be great!

Problem. I want Linux Script to compare two folders and copy missing files.

Description. I have two directories

/dir1 /dir2

I need to copy all distinct/new/unique/missing files from /dir1 and that does not have a correspondent file in /dir2.

Beginner/Intermediate shell; comfortable in the command line.

I have been looking for a solution to a backup problem. I need to compare Directory 1 to Directory 2 and copy all modified or new files/directories from Directory 1 to Directory 3. I need the directory and file structure to be mirrored on Directory 3. Another way of thinking about the logic is: Dir1 - Dir2 = Dir3.

I have directory path in which there are several sub directories. In all these sub dir there will be one env.cnf file.
