The -i option in the mv command stands for "interactive." When you use this option, it prompts you for confirmation before overwriting an existing file in the destination.
Example:
If you run:
mv -i file.txt destination/And if destination/file.txt already exists, you will see a prompt asking if you want to overwrite it. You can then choose to proceed or cancel the operation.
Purpose:
This option helps prevent accidental data loss by ensuring you confirm any overwrites.
