dirs_cleaner —
remove contents of directories
dirs_cleaner |
path ... |
The dirs_cleaner utility recursively
deletes the entire contents of each directory argument, while the
directories themselves are not deleted. A cleaned directory may be
re-created in the process of cleaning; if so, it gets a new inode number.
Recursive traversals do not cross mount points. Each directory is identified
directly or via a symbolic link.
The dirs_cleaner utility exits with one of
the following values:
0 Each input directory was successfully cleaned.
>0 An error occurred.
