Question

伊谢尔伦 · Answer

You can read the manual

[root@cc tmp]# rm --help

To remove a file whose name starts with a `-', for example `-foo',
use one of these commands:
  rm -- -foo

  rm ./-foo

Note that if you use rm to remove a file, it is usually possible to recover
the contents of that file.  If you want more assurance that the contents are
truly unrecoverable, consider using shred.

So there are two ways to delete it

Add -- or ./ to delete it

[root@cc tmp]# rm -rf -- --
[root@cc tmp]# rm -rf ./--

rm -rf -- --

--For most commands, it is used to mark the end of the command's own parameters

For example

$ echo a > test
$ cat -n test
     1    a
$ cat -n -- test
     1    a
$ cat -- -n test
cat: -n: 没有那个文件或目录
a

-- The former are the configuration parameters of the command itself, and the latter are the parameters such as files and objects that the command will act on

When you write only one --, it will be used as a separator. If you write it twice, the first one will be used as a separator, and the second one will be used as a command parameter
