Hi All,
I have had a look on google and the archives but can't seem to find any
answers on this.
Does anybody know whether it is possible to create subdirectories with
the cp command?
I have been given the task of moving some data and update a database at
the same time.
I will presented with a file like...
/original_dir/text.txt /new_dir/non-existent_subdir1/nonexistent_subdir1/newtext.txt
I have added a few checks, cp and db update, but cp does not create the
new sub dirs.
I am reluctant to create all the new dirs within the same script as
there are about 3 million records and it's going to take forever to
run!
I've checked the man page and couldn't see any options that would
help.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Colin.
