minus-squareyetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up16·9 hours agoTry: I would like to execute the following command: sudo rm -fr /home/user/Documents/old/…/./…/./Music/badSongs/…/…/…/./Downloads/…/…/./././* Is it safe? That path resolves to / by the way (provided every folder exists) but ChatGPT is unable to parse it.

minus-squaretetris11linkfedilinkarrow-up8·6 hours agoWouldn’t that path only resolve if those intermediate directories exist? I thought bash had to crawl the path to resolve it
