shell scripting - How to zip contents inside a folder without the folder itself?
This should do the job:
zip -rj site.zip folder-root/*
zip --help says:
-j junk (don't record) directory
cd folder-root
zip -r ../site.zip *
This question has a similiar problem and the answer could work. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2597875/how-can-i-build-a-tar-from-stdin
zip site.zip `ls -1 folder-root/`
This will create the list of files that you want to add into your zip file.
