在Linux中，如何复制不以给定字符串开头的所有文件？

Question

I tried with the following command:

cp src_folder/[!String]* dest_folder

However, this command will copy all the files that don't start with any of the characters 'S','t','r','i','n','g' instead of copying files that don't start with "String".

Answer 1

A variation on Konrad answer, using cp option -t to specify target directory simplifies the last command. It creates a single cp process to copy all the files.

ls src_folder | grep -v '^String' | xargs cp -t dest_folder

• list all files in src_folder
• filter out all those that start with String
• copy all remaining files to dest_dir

Answer 2

In bash:

shopt -s extglob
cp src_folder/!(String*) dest_folder

Answer 3

ls src_folder | grep -v '^String' | xargs -J % -n1 cp % dest_folder

This will

• list all files in src_folder
• filter out all those that start with String (so that the rest remains)
• Invoke the cp command
  • once for each of those files ( -n1 says to call cp for each of them separately)
  • using, as its arguments, % dest_folder , where % is replaced by the actual file name.

Answer 4

cp src_folder/!(String*) dest_folder
