rmdir is like a reverse of mkdir, it removes the empty directory.

To remove an empty directory call hello, just

rmdir hello

And you can remove parent directory as well like

rmdir -p lvl1/lvl2/hello

It will removes the directory lvl1 then sub dir lvl2 and sub sub dir hello

But to use rmdir, the directory MUST be empty. So I found it useless, i can remove empty directory by using

rm -rf hello
