To reproduce this bug, you need two different file systems. Adapt the
paths to fit your system.
Set the experimental file structure up like this:
mkdir exp
cd exp
mkdir a
cd a
touch a{1..100000}
cd ..
mkdir b
cd b
touch b{1..10000}
mkdir /t/ae # /t has to be on a different file system
Then have two terminals open in the exp directory created above. In
one, execute this command:
mv a /t/ae
In the other, execute this one while the one in the first terminal
still is running (hence the large number of files so you have time to
do this):
mv b/* a
You will end up with 100 000 files in /t/ae. The 10 000 files beginning
with the letter b will be gone.
