I (for curiosity's sake) am running du -a inside /usr/lib/git-core and it does not show results for all the files in that directory. Why does it leave out an arbitrary set of files?this is what cd /usr/lib/git-core; du -a returns:
4 ./git-merge-resolve

12 ./git-show-index

I'm timing how long it takes to run a command foo. I'm looking to append the results from the time command to a file, and discard the results from the foo command. I tried the following, but it didn't do what I want:

I have a question on using diff. I have two files that contain directory/file listings: d11.lis and d11.lis from a previous day. I am not interested in files that changed, or were added, I just want to see a list of files that are missing on day two.

How do I limit the output to show me only first 2 files? (except for having only 2 files in that directory)

i have 10 vi files . these files contain some system related information. i need to combine the output of all these files into a single file. the final file should contain contents of all these 10 files and the output should be in a tabular format.

I have two systems running on linux. system one is running with RHEL 5.4/X86_64 hardware, system two is running with RHEL 5.3/i686 hardware. One filesystem is shared from system two and mounted as NFS on system one. Now when i do a copy from local filesystem to the NFS share from system one,it shows as follows
Quote:
-rw-r--r-- 1 xkinved rbak1 30 Mar 3 2011 king
But if i do copy with -p option then it shows right time stamp. Both machines are running with slight(minutes) different in time. Does this could be cause for this problem? The problem is happening while i do FTP from some other machines too.
This has to also show the line count. I can get it to show the files but not the line count. What is the single command used to identify only the matching count of all lines within files under the /etc directory that contain the word „HOST? List only the files with matches and suppress any error messages.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have noticed that the files and folders search in Unity, only shows up those files which have been amended (or possibly just opened) since the install.
i was wondering if there was a way i could have the search index (or something vaguely equivalent) all the files on my machine. This is especially important given that i reinstall the OS every six months on a new distribution cycle, copying all my old files across.
Without being able to see my old files the search is pretty much reduced to a recent history search.
I am newer to Linux ( using Ubuntu 10.04) : I have noticed that during replacement of a file , no date and size of the new and old files are shown in the dialogue box so how to show that ( like the one in windows)
I know that it is easy question , but i really don't know how to do that , by the way I have checked folder preferences and system --> preferences but i did not find something for that
I configured it to use IMAP to access our exchange 2010 server front end on a LAN connection. Our webmail connection is segregated behind Forefront, so it was not connecting/authing that way. Even though smartphones have no problem. (sidenote, is there an activesync linux mail client ?)

I am trying to determine CPU usage on a radio controller running Linux. We have a script that another member of my work wrote using vmstat which I could not get any consistant results from. So, in an effort to understand what was going on I wrote a script using ps. Sadley after running several tests using both scripts, they do no match up at all, vmstat always gives me a much higher value. However, if I simply run the commands at any given time they do match up, therefore I believe that there is an error in one of the scripts. I am very new to linux and so Here is the vmstat script:
#!/bin/bash
declare -i total
declare -i tries

The system of my VPS is centos 5. I want to know if it is 32bit or 64bit. > uname -a Thu May 13 13:49:53 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
looks like 64 bit.
But
> getconf WORD_BIT
32
Looks like 32 bit.
Which is correct?
I believe the linux of my VPS is 32 bit. Because I downloaded a 64bit mongodb, found it can't start. And when I downloaded a 32bit instead, it works well.
When using the grep plugin to VIM, I can search the current directory for all occurrences of a string within a set of files, like this::grep Ryan *.txtThis outputs something like this:

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've setup a git-svn repo with cron to fetch from the svn repo daily. I have a script to do the fetching, and this is what is invoked by cron. Everything is fine with the repo, and the script works fine when executed manually. However, when it runs under cron, empty files get dropped into the .git directory. The files have names that look like they are some base64 output, e.g. juTrvjP6m8 and kcKf3hu3b4. Two of these files show up for every cron run. I thought these might be commit hashes, but they're not, git-show says it's an unknown revision. I set-up the repo as follows:
[code]...
The last line pushes the repo to a separate (bare) public repo from which others can clone. I'm piping the output from the cron job to a file, which looks like this:
[code]...
The line "fatal: unable to run 'git-svn'" is alarming, but the fetch seems to go ahead anyway. Where are these empty garbage files coming from, and how to stop them? Am I in for bigger problems in the future?
In my .bashrc I have the following lines to turn on colors for grep and ls alias ls='ls --color=auto'export GREP_OPTIONS='--color=auto'.I've tried changing the alias to export LS_OPTIONS='--color=auto' but that doesn't work.Is there anyway to use an export instead of alias. And are there actually any benefits to one way over the other?
