How to move all files of a folder to another folder in ssh console?

Question

I have tree structure like in the same level

• public_html

• connection

& inside the public_html I have

• conn

so I want to move all the files & folder of folder public_html/conn to connection folder which is in the level of public_html,so which exact command of ssh can give me the result?

Answer 1

If you want the folder conn to be inside connection :

mv -i public_html/conn/ connection

Alternatively, if you want the files inside conn , but not the conn folder itself, to be inside connection :

mv -i public_html/conn/* connection
mv -i public_html/conn/.* connection

Would definitely suggest doing man mv beforehand to avoid making a mistake.
