Full Discussion: Rename last directory in a file structure

Try this...
Code:
#!/bin/bash

for line in $(find test -type d)
do
        z=$(echo $line | grep "$str" )
        if [[ -z "$z" && $(echo $str | grep -v "Submitted") ]]
        then
                echo "mv $str $str-Submitted"
                #mv $str $str-Submitted
        fi
        str=$line
done 
if [ $(echo $line | grep -v "Submitted") ]
then
        echo "mv $str $str-Submitted"
        #mv $str $str-Submitted
fi

If the above code is printing the correct "mv" commands, then un-comment the "mv" statements, remove the "echo" statements and execute the script again.
Code:
echo "mv $str $str-Submitted"
#mv $str $str-Submitted

# should be changed to

mv $str $str-Submitted

NAME

       cd - Change working directory

SYNOPSIS

       cd ?dirName?

DESCRIPTION

       Change the current working directory to dirName, or to the home directory (as specified in the HOME environment variable) if dirName is not

EXAMPLES

       Change to the home directory of the user fred:
	      cd ~fred

       Change to the directory lib that is a sibling directory of the current one:
	      cd ../lib
