I know of the mv command to move a file from one place to another, but how do I move all files from one directory into another (that has a bunch of other files), overwriting if the file already exists?
我知道mv命令将文件从一个地方移动到另一个地方，但是我如何将所有文件从一个目录移动到另一个目录(它有一堆其他的文件)，如果文件已经存在就重写?

It's just mv srcdir/* targetdir/.
它就是mv srcdir/* targetdir/。
If there are too many files in srcdir you might want to try something like the following approach:
如果srcdir文件太多，您可能需要尝试以下方法:
cd srcdir
find -exec mv {} targetdir/ +
In contrast to \; the final + collects arguments in an xargs like manner instead of executing mv once for every file.
相比之下\;final +以类似xargs的方式收集参数，而不是为每个文件执行一次mv。

For moving and overwriting files, it doesn't look like there is the -R option (when in doubt check your options by typing [your_cmd] --help. Also, this answer depends on how you want to move your file. Move all files, files & directories, replace files at destination, etc.
对于移动和覆盖文件，它看起来不像有-R选项(当有疑问通过键入[your_cmd]来检查选项时)。此外，这个答案取决于您希望如何移动文件。移动所有文件，文件和目录，替换目标文件，等等。
When you type in mv --help it returns the description of all options.
输入mv时——帮助它返回所有选项的描述。
For mv, the syntax is mv [option] [file_source] [file_destination]
对于mv，语法是mv[选项][file_source] [file_destination]
To move simple files: mv image.jpg folder/image.jpg
要移动简单的文件:mv image.jpg文件夹/image.jpg
To move as folder into destination mv folder home/folder
将文件夹移动到目标mv文件夹home/folder中
To move all files in source to distination mv folder/* home/folder/
将源文件中的所有文件移动到扩展mv文件夹/* home/folder/
Use -v if you want to see what is being done: mv -v
如果你想看看做了什么，用-v: mv -v
Use -i to prompt before overwriting: mv -i
使用-我在重写前提示:mv -i。
Use -u to update files in destination. It will only move source files newer than the file in the destination, and when it doesn't exist yet: mv -u
使用-u更新目标文件。它将只移动源文件比目标文件更新，当它还不存在时:mv -u
Tie options together like mv -viu, etc.
将选项捆绑在一起，如mv -viu等。

It's also possible by using rsync, for example:
也可以使用rsync，例如:
rsync -va --delete-after src/ dst/

-
--delete-after: delete files on the receiving side be done after the transfer has completed - ——删除后:在传输完成后，删除接收方的文件
If you've root privileges, prefix with sudo to override potential permission issues.
如果您有根权限，可以使用带sudo的前缀来覆盖潜在的权限问题。

In linux shell, many commands accept multiple parameters and therefore could be used with wild cards. So, for example if you want to move all files from folder A to folder B, you write:
在linux shell中，许多命令接受多个参数，因此可以与通配符一起使用。例如，如果你想将所有文件从文件夹A移动到文件夹B，你可以这样写:
mv A/* B
If you want to move all files with a certain "look" to it, you could do like this:
如果你想把所有的文件都移动到一个特定的“look”上，你可以这样做:
mv A/*.txt B
Which copies all files that are blablabla.txt to folder B
复制所有的文件。txt文件夹B
Star (*) can substitute any number of characters or letters while ? can substitute one. For example if you have many files in the shape file_number.ext and you want to move only the ones that have two digit numbers, you could use a command like this:
星号(*)可以替换任意数量的字符或字母吗?可以用一个。例如，如果在shape file_number中有许多文件。ext和你想移动只有两个数字的，你可以使用如下命令:
mv A/file_??.ext B
Or more complicated examples:
或更复杂的例子:
mv A/fi*_??.e* B
For files that look like fi<-something->_<-two characters->.e<-something->
对于类似于fi<-something->_<- 2个字符->.e<-something->的文件
Unlike many commands in shell that require -R to (for example) copy or remove subfolders, mv does that itself.
与shell中需要-R复制或删除子文件夹的许多命令不同，mv本身就是这样做的。
Remember that mv overwrites without asking (unless the files being overwritten are read only or you don't have permission) so make sure you don't lose anything in the process.
请记住mv在没有请求的情况下进行重写(除非被覆盖的文件是只读的，或者您没有权限)，所以请确保在过程中不会丢失任何内容。
For your future information, if you have subfolders that you want to copy, you could use the -R option, saying you want to do the command recursively. So it would look something like this:
对于将来的信息，如果您有要复制的子文件夹，您可以使用-R选项，表示希望递归地执行命令。大概是这样的:
cp A/* B -R
By the way, all I said works with rm (remove, delete) and cp (copy) too and beware, because once you delete, there is no turning back! Avoid commands like rm * -R unless you are sure what you are doing.
顺便说一下，我说的所有东西都适用于rm(删除、删除)和cp(复制)，而且要小心，因为一旦你删除了，就没有回头路了!避免像rm * -R这样的命令，除非您确定正在做什么。
