I use an app on my Android Samsung S10 that can execute exiftool commands with my custom arguments.
My problem is that exiftool include deleted files with the prefix dot.
For instance, when renaming also deleted files will be renamed and then the dot disappear and the file is not deleted anymore.
Is there a built-in parameter that can be used to exlude the deleted files or do I need to use an -if statement?
Adding -i HIDDEN to the command will ignore hidden files (ie. ones with names starting with ".") when a directory name is specified on the command line. HIDDEN must be all capitals.
There is a similar option to ignore directories which are symbolic links (-i SYMLINKS) if you ever need it.
