How to rename folders by removing the dot "."?

Question

Windows Server

There was a file dump on Windows 1.5tb. Users were on both centOS and Windows. Due to linux users, directories with a dot at the end of the name have accumulated in the exchange, for example "New_folder." For windows, the dot special character "." critical. Folders won't open. On the command line, mostly utilities for mass file manipulation.

Answer 1

I decided. Through a high-level programming language. Thanks for the advice.

Answer 2

Consider that renaming is also an ambiguous operation. For example, you had a folder

/svn
/.svn

and after renaming, your files from dot-svn merge with svn with all the consequences. With rewriting
and loss of the necessary files.

Answer 3

Write a script that checks the file name using a regular expression and renames all those selected with a dot at the end, discarding the dot. Everything is written in bash in half an hour maximum.
