btrfs-filesystem:tldr:73997
This command is used to display disk usage statistics for a specified Btrfs filesystem directory. Here is a breakdown of the command:
-
sudo
: This is a command used in Unix-like operating systems to execute a command with administrative privileges. It allows the user to run the following command as the superuser or root. -
btrfs filesystem du
: This is the main command used to display disk usage statistics for a Btrfs filesystem. It is followed by the--summarize
option, which provides a summary of disk usage rather than a detailed breakdown. -
${path-to-directory}
: This is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual path to the directory you want to analyze. It specifies the location on the Btrfs filesystem for which you want to retrieve disk usage information.
When you run this command with the appropriate directory path, it will calculate and display the disk usage summary for that specific directory on the Btrfs filesystem.
