Bug#582321: TAG: dirsum -- commandline directory summary

2010-05-21 Thread Joey Hess
I'm unsure if this ITP was filed as a reaction to my closure of #571575,
or without knowledge of it. But ..

a) I am really suprised that many people would care that du -h | sort -h
   doesn't list files in strict order of size. Does which of two 1.0G
   files is largest really tend to matter? Enough to have a whole other
   package?

b) If you do care which 1.0G file is biggest, then an option to have du
   include some additional precision in its -h output would easily solve
   your problem. Or there's the small modification I suggest to du at
   http://bugs.debian.org/563118#70 would allow sorting its output
   exactly by size, without the ugliness of needing a sort -h, and while
   still providing human-readable file sizes.

c) I'd certianly be willing to consider for moreutils a filter that
   converts block or byte sized input into human-readable sizes.
   That would be the full-on unix way to go.

 What does this do that existing tools don't?

 $ du -Sk | sort -nr | head -n10

Or, to compare it to something that my users can use too, what does it
offer over ncdu.

Cheers,
