GFMV(1)

πŸ’– GFMV(1) β€” the Gfarm glow-up page πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to gfmv, the Gfarm command that moves (aka renames) your files. it's giving mv but make it ✨federated✨. no cap.


✨ NAME ✨

gfmv β€” move (rename) Gfarm file πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

gfmv [options] src dest-file

gfmv [options] src... dest-dir

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

two forms, two vibes, both iconic πŸ’…

form one, the rename era:

gfmv renames a Gfarm file from src to dest-file. that's it. one file in, one file out, main character energy.

form two, the group-move era:

gfmv moves Gfarm files β€” the ones you listed in the src parameter β€” to under the existing dest-dir. note the word existing, bestie, that directory needs to already be there or it's not happening 🫢


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -f β€” do not prompt before overwriting files that aren't writable. just goes for it. bold of you, honestly 😭
  • -i β€” prompt before overwriting. the polite era πŸ™ˆ
  • -x β€” do not allow moving a directory between different directory quota settings. and if you don't pass this option? gfmv tries to emulate that kind of moving by recursively creating the directory hierarchy. so yeah, -x is the strict one, no -x is the "we'll rebuild it recursively, trust" one πŸ”₯
  • -? β€” displays a list of command options. your lil cheat sheet, your study guide, your ✨menu✨

heads up bestie: the -f and -i girlies are doing opposite things β€” one skips the prompt, one serves the prompt. know which one you're summoning πŸ’€

nothing else listed here, so just go forth and move those files, you absolute queen πŸ‘‘
