I have a large number of files in a ClearCase directory structure, and I need to go through and change all "makefile" to "Makefile". I'm thinking some combination of the find . -name makefile command with an exec flag, but I'm having a hard time coming up with the exec command. The cleartool mv command does not automatically check out the directory, so I need to check that out and then do the mv. But as far as I can tell, the only thing I have to work with is the %CLEARCASE_PN% symbol, which gives me the full pathname. So I need to parse the directory out from that. I'm hoping someone who's better with the shell than me can come up with the right command quicker than I can puzzle it out.
I have cleartool, Windows cmd, and Cygwin to work with here.
I guess that you have bash in your cygwin environment. If you do you can write a small bash script using this answer to a previous question into something as:
#!/bin/bash
FILE=$1
DIR_NAME=$( dirname $FILE )
FILE_NAME=$( basename $FILE )
#checkout directory $DIR_NAME with whatever the cleartool command is
#rename with cleartool $DIR_NAME/$FILE to $DIR_NAME/new_name
/usr/atria/bin/cleartool checkout -nc $DIR_NAME;
/usr/atria/bin/cleartool mv $DIR_NAME/$FILE_NAME $DIR_NAME/Makefile;
Then call the script with:
find . -name orig_name -exec myscript.sh {} \;
