NAME

mvdir- move a directory

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sbin/mvdir dirname name

DESCRIPTION

mvdir moves directories within a file system. dirname must be a directory. If name does not exist, it will be created as a directory. If name does exist, and is a directory, dirname will be created as name/dirname. dirname and name may not be on the same path; that is, one may not be subordinate to the other. For example:

---

example% mvdir x/y x/z

---

is legal, but

---

example% mvdir x/y x/y/z

---

is not.

OPERANDS

The name of the directory that is to be moved to another directory in the filesystem.

name
