Hi all
"ls" (version 8.26) sorts wrongly if given large number of files via
"find" or "xargs"
Actually ls is working just fine here. You just misunderstand how
"find" works in this case.
To see what actually happens, you should run
find -type f -exec echo {} + | wc -l
in that same directory you did your test case in. You'll find it does
_not_ print 1. Now ponder what that means.
For further information, RTFM at:
info "finding files" Actions run multi
about how find builds the command lines it sends to the programs to be
run by "-exec"
