Working with a new backup scheme and trying to think of a good way to delete all sub folders of a directory, but not any files in the root of the directory. For example, I have a directory structure like: /2005/03/08. Folder '03' has a folder for every single day with the daily backups. At the end of the month I am moving the last day's backups to the root of the month's folder (03) and then want to clear out all the daily folders. I could just copy them to a temporary folder, do the traditional rm -rf and move the files back. But curious to know if there is a handier way to do this, since I'm sure it will come up again.
