How To Use `mv` Command with `find` command in Linux

find . -name '*<pattern here>*' -exec mv -t desination/ {} +
  • -t specifies the destination path before the argument file (designated by {} in find)
  • {} is the current file matching the find command criteria
  • + the find command line is built by appending each selected file name at the end; the total number of invocations of the ~mv~ command will be much less than the number of matched files.
