Hello. Both these commands : # find . -print -depth | cpio --create --format='newc' > ../../i nitrd.img-5.19.0-15.2-liquorix-amd64
# find . | cpio --create --format='newc' > ../../initrd.img-5.10.0-18-amd64 produce this warning : find: warning: you have specified the global option -depth after the argument -print, but global options are not positional, i.e., -depth affects tests specified before it as well as those specified after it. Please specify global options before other arguments. It is a warning,not an error. But why does it happens ? Can I "fx" it ?
