I would have tried something with find's '-execdir'
- no need to operate on find's output (not a good idea unless you are
100% sure there are no "strange" filenames)
- no need for the added complexity of the loop, chdir, etc.
Something like this should work (untested):
find -type f -name '*.yml' -execdir mv {} .. \;
Kind regards,
Andrei
