Help with moving files with same names from subdirectories?
I was wondering if someone could help me with this:
I have multiple directories and subdirectories with files in them. I need to move all files from all directories and subdirectories into one root directory. However, when i do
The command takes only 1 copy of files with the same name and ignores all other files. Ideally I would like it to rename files with same file names to something else. Like appending a number etc.
Example:
when moved to a folder should be setup.log1 setup.log2 and so on.
Any help is much appreciated
