duf: List everything (such as pseudo, duplicate or inaccessible file systems).
$ duf --all
try on your machine
The command "duf --all" is a command-line instruction used to display information about disk usage on a Unix/Linux system. Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "duf" stands for Disk Usage Free, which is the name of the command. It is a modern alternative to the "du" command that provides an improved and user-friendly representation of disk usage.
- "--all" is a flag or option passed to the command, causing it to display information about all file systems, including those that are normally excluded.
By combining the command and its flag, "duf --all" will generate a summary of disk usage across all file systems, showing the usage details of directories and files present, including hidden or system files. This can help you understand which directories or files are taking up the most space on your system across all file systems.
