Subject: [PATCH] commands: rm: add -f option to ignore nonexistent files
Date: Fri,  7 Jul 2023 10:18:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230707081814.2564713-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)

rm supports multiple arguments, but will stop at the first nonexistent
file and print an error message that can't be silenced. Mimic other
implementations and implement -f for silently ignoring nonexistent files.
