I would suggest an option kind of like -xdev to not cross mount points and therefore prevent a lot of stupid disasters. Kind of like rm -rf / is always a bad idea, rm -rf /tmp/* while another filesystem is mounted in /tmp is always a bad idea.
No, I haven't made that mistake myself yet. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
