如果你想在/apps/test目录中找到最后修改的文件夹名称，那么你可以在批处理脚本中放入下面的代码片段并执行它，它将打印最后修改的文件夹名称。

#!/bin/bash -e

export latestModifiedFolderName=$(ls -td /apps/test/*/ | head -n1)

echo Latest modified folder within /apps/test directory is $latestModifiedFolderName

ls -lAtr | tail -1

其他解决方案不包括以“。”开头的文件。

该命令还包括'。'和'..，这可能是也可能不是你想要的:

Ls -latr | tail -1

所有这些ls/tail解决方案都非常适用于目录中的文件—忽略子目录。

为了在搜索中包含所有文件(递归地)，可以使用find。Gioele建议对格式化的查找输出进行排序。但是要小心使用空格(他的建议不适用于空格)。

这应该适用于所有文件名:

find $DIR -type f -printf "%T@ %p\n" | sort -n | sed -r 's/^[0-9.]+\s+//' | tail -n 1 | xargs -I{} ls -l "{}"

这一分类由时，见人发现:

%Ak    File's  last  access  time in the format specified by k, which is either `@' or a directive for the C `strftime' function.  The possible values for k are listed below; some of them might not be available on all systems, due to differences in `strftime' between systems.
       @      seconds since Jan. 1, 1970, 00:00 GMT, with fractional part.
%Ck    File's last status change time in the format specified by k, which is the same as for %A.
%Tk    File's last modification time in the format specified by k, which is the same as for %A.

用%C替换%T，按ctime排序。

我使用:

ls -ABrt1——group- directory -first | tail -n1 . ls -ABrt1——group- directory -first | tail -n1 . ls

它只给我文件名，不包括文件夹。

这是一个递归版本(即，它在某个目录或其任何子目录中查找最近更新的文件)

find /dir/path -type f -printf "%T@ %p\n" | sort -n | cut -d' ' -f 2- | tail -n 1

命令行简单的外行解释:

find /dir/path -type f finds all the files in the directory -printf "%T@ %p\n" prints a line for each file where %T@ is the float seconds since 1970 epoch and %p is the filename path and \n is the new line character for more info see man find | is a shell pipe (see man bash section on Pipelines) sort -n means to sort on the first column and to treat the token as numerical instead of lexicographic (see man sort) cut -d' ' -f 2- means to split each line using the character and then to print all tokens starting at the second token (see man cut) NOTE: -f 2 would print only the second token tail -n 1 means to print the last line (see man tail)

ls -t -1 | sed '1q'

将显示文件夹中最后修改的项目。与grep配对以查找带有关键字的最新条目

ls -t -1 | grep foo | sed '1q'
