how do i add the creation of a director to this cli command
I'm traversing a directory, looking for subdirectories, finding certain files, and copying them someplace else... I'm doing this:
for i in ls ./*/filename; do cp $i ../test2; done
This takes all those filenames and moves them into the test2 directory... thing is I also need the source dirname.... i think this is can be down with awk but I'm clueless and struggling...
for i in ls ./dirname/filename; do cp ../test2/dirname/; done
I can't copy the entire dirname because I don't need all the files in there...
linux bash awk command-line
