NAME

SYNOPSIS

9       /usr/sbin/mvdir dirname name

DESCRIPTION

13       mvdir  moves directories within a file system. dirname must be a direc‐
14       tory. If name does not exist, it will be created  as  a  directory.  If
15       name  does  exist,  and  is  a  directory,  dirname  will be created as
16       name/dirname. dirname and  name may not be on the same path;  that  is,
17       one may not be subordinate to the other. For example:
18
19
20       example% mvdir x/y x/z
21
22
23       is legal, but
24
25
26       example% mvdir x/y x/y/z
27
28
29       is not.
