When I use mkdir, when it succeeds sometimes it has no message, which is
acceptable, but sometimes it says this:
mkdir: cannot create directory '<folder-name>': File exists
But the directory didn't exist before I used mkdir to make it, and I show
hidden files, thus also hidden directories.
Unfortunately I do not understand this bug report. I don't get the connection
between the diagnostic and hidden directories.
Can you give an example transcript of the bug and explain it a bit more? Thanks.
