delete directories with find and exclude other directories
Hi all,
I'm attempting to delete some directories and I want to be able to exclude
a directory called 'logs' from being deleted.
This is my basic find operation (without the exclusion)
# find . -type d |tail -10
./d20160124-1120-df8mfb/deployments
./d20160124-1120-df8mfb/releases
./d20160131-16993-vazqg5
./d20160131-16993-vazqg5/metadata
./d20160131-16993-vazqg5/deployments

crude thing I would do is:
find . -type d | grep -v logs
, but that will also exclude other names containing "logs" it is like:
Semilogs2
logs4me
Thanks.
