How can I move multiple folders into another directory ? For example, I would like to move the folder 000/ 001/ 002/ to train/000/ train/002 train/003. Is there a simple command that I can use like



mv --from 000/ 001/ 002/ --to train/000/ train/002 train/003

$hover.hover(

$hover.showInfoMessage('', {
messageElement: $msg.clone().show(),
transient: false,
position: { my: 'bottom left', at: 'top center', offsetTop: -7 },
dismissable: false,
relativeToBody: true

          I could type whatever was typed in this article again, but here:
          https://discuss.devopscube.com/t/how-to-move-mv-multiple-directories-or-files-to-a-folder-at-a-time/100



          The basic command is:




          You can do this using -t flag with the mv command.



          The syntax would look like the following.



            mv -t <destination> <src1> <src2> .... <srnN>

          mv {001..100}/ train/



          Just replace 100 with your folder range.
