mvx

Move a file with avoiding duplicates or overwriting different files:

Example:

Generate a random file:

# tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 </dev/urandom | head -c 13 > tempfile

Copy the file to a backup:

# cp tempfile tempfile.dup

Move the original to a bck/ folder:

# mvx tempfile bck/
              target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/tempfile                                [  SUCCESS   ]
                target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/bck/tempfile                          [  FAILURE   ]
          move tempfile                                                                  [  SUCCESS   ]

Note: the error points to no dups found.

Copy the duplicate to the original and repeat, effectively moving the same file twice:

# mv tempfile.dup tempfile
# mvx tempfile bck/
              target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/tempfile                                [  SUCCESS   ]
                target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/bck/tempfile                          [  SUCCESS   ]
          move tempfile                                                                  [  SUCCESS   ]

Create a new tempfile and move it:

# tr -dc A-Za-z0-9 </dev/urandom | head -c 13 > tempfile
# mvx tempfile bck/
              target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/tempfile                                [  SUCCESS   ]
                target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/bck/tempfile                          [  SUCCESS   ]
                target found /home/jvzantvoort/tmp/bck/tempfile.1                        [  FAILURE   ]
          move tempfile                                                                  [  SUCCESS   ]

The result is the original moved and the second version moved to a .1 file:

# ls -l bck
total 8
-rw-r--r--. 1 jvzantvoort jvzantvoort 13 Aug 10 21:03 tempfile
-rw-r--r--. 1 jvzantvoort jvzantvoort 13 Aug 10 21:04 tempfile.1
