A couple of times there was the question: in a directory hierarchy how to display the deepest directories only.
For example in Help with listing only subfolders.
My hot solution at that time was (in short)
Code:
find . -depth -type d | awk -F / 'NF>=p; {p=NF}'
But another article has opened my eyes for the cool solution
Code:
find . -depth -type d -links 2
In fact I had implemented that a long time ago in a Unix cleantmp solution; the task is to run rmdir on non-empty directories, and in the absence of -empty the -links 2 is the closest approach: an rmdir can only work on the deepest directories.
