NAME

du - summarize disk usage  

SYNOPSIS

du [-abcklsx] [+all] [+total] [+count-links] [+summarize] [+bytes] [+kilobytes] [+one-file-system] [path...]  

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents the GNU version of du. du displays the amount of disk space (in 512-byte blocks by default) used by each argument and for each subdirectory of directory arguments.  

OPTIONS

-a, +all
Display counts for all files, not just directories.
-b, +bytes
Print sizes in bytes instead of in 512-byte blocks.
-c, +total
Write a grand total of all of the arguments after all arguments have been processed. This can be used to find out the disk usage of a directory, with some files excluded.
-k, +kilobytes
Print sizes in kilobytes instead of in 512-byte blocks.
-l, +count-links
Count the size of all files, even if they have appeared already in another hard link.
-s, +summarize
Display only a total for each argument.
-x, +one-file-system
Do not cross file-system boundaries during the recursion.
