find命令中%p和%P之间的区别是什么

Question

我在一个例子中遇到了如下使用find命令(它将目录结构复制到哪里)

 find olddir -name script.sh -printf "%p\0" -printf "newdir/%P\0" | xargs -0L2 cp -n

我不清楚%p和%PI之间的差异读取了找不到多少的查找的手册页

 %p     File's name.
 %P     File's name with the name of the command line argument under which it was found removed.

%p和%P之间有什么区别

我对它的含义感到困惑

 %P     File's name with the name of the command line argument under which it was found removed.

你有没试过吗？的%p,在你的榜样,包括打印的文件olddir的一部分,并%P打印它没有.几乎就是文档所说的内容.简单的例子:

$ ls -R
.:
dir/

./dir:
file
$ find dir -name file -printf '%p\n'
dir/file
$ find dir -name file -printf '%P\n'
file
