Follow-up Comment #9, bug #54730 (project findutils): My second example in #5 is incorrect since -exec ... {} + is not guaranteed to have launched a child process before the -quit is processed. See also the wording in the EXIT STATUS section of the manual page:
When some error occurs, find may stop immediately, without completing all the actions specified. For example, some starting points may not have been examined or some pending program invocations for -exec ... {} + or -execdir ... {} + may not have been performed. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?54730> _______________________________________________ Message sent via Savannah https://savannah.gnu.org/
