From my man page from "AT&T 3B2 Computer Unix System V User Reference Manual"
" -depth Always true; causes descent of the directory hierarchy to
be done so that all entries in a directory are acted on
before the directory itself. This can be helpful when _f_i_n_d
is used with _c_p_i_o_(_1_) to transfer files that are contained
in directories without write permission."
