Moving multiple files with same name and renaming them on the fly

问题

I have multiple folders in my ubuntu 16.04 with pictures in them. I would like to move all pictures to one folder and rename all files with same name.

I can easily move pictures from first folder, but how do i copy pictures from rest of the folders without destroying (copying over) all existing files with same name?

Is there some handy oneliner that i could use in terminal for this?

回答1:

cp has a useful option --backup=numbered that adds a numbered suffix to the name of a file that would otherwise be clobbered.

If you have a directory tree containing duplicate file names, then you can combine cp with find to collapse the structure. (Disclaimer: I did not test this, so please tread with caution.)

find $SOURCEDIR -type f -exec cp --backup=numbered '{}' $TARGETDIR \;
