Problem :
I have a directory with text files in /user/data/tutorial/texts/ and I’d like to move the (sub)directory Folder2/ with all of its contents to /user/.
How should I go about this using unix commands?
Solution :
The mv command moves files and directories between directories.
Assuming that you have write access to both /user (for creating new files and directories therein) and /user/data/tutorial/texts (for deleting the directory Folder2), then the following command will do what you ask for:
mv /user/data/tutorial/texts/Folder2 /user
