| Summary | 0000365: List of directories to visit and "-exec rm" | ||||
| Description | I've never participated in this before, so please forgive me if i state the matter incorrectly or write to the wrong group. Lately i've found a small lack of conciseness in the standard concerning the find utility behaviour with recursive actions, eg removing subdirectories. There was a discussion at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-findutils/2010-05/msg00037.html In short, it's not stated whether -exec acts on the directory contents before -exec'ed command or after. | ||||
| Desired Action | Should it be stated explicitly, that the behaviour in this case is unspecified? | ||||

Add to Description for find (issue 7 page 2737, line 89056): If a file is removed from or added to the directory hierarchy being searched it is unspecified whether or not find includes that file in its search. |
