Does anyone know how to check if a directory is empty? I tried the
following:
if [ -d "/dir/to/remove" -a ! -s "/dir/to/remove" ]; then
echo "Removing /dir/to/remove directory."
rmdir /dir/to/remove
else
echo "Directory /dir/to/remove is not empty."
fi
Even if the directory (in this example "remove") is empty (has no other
files or folders) the else statement runs, which means the directory
does not get removed. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jason
