[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Is it ever possible for the mv command  ( without using the -u option )  to
leave the  file(s)  in the source directory, while also copying to the
destination directory?

We were experiencing this under  zsh   and  GNU/Linux  2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.x86_64.

Any  comments appreciated!


thanks!

Charles Rogers

Very good.  I am glad it worked out for you.  I will close this bug
