Hi,
I have a bunched of files in a directory and there are a.avi and a.rar in it. Inside the directory, there is also a directory called "a". I wanted to type "mv a.* a". But instead I typed "mv a.*" by mistake. As a result, I can't find the original a.rar anymore, but I found that it renamed a.avi to a.rar. Why? What does "mv a.*" mean? I think it's a bug. Please fix it.
