perhaps I just need to learn the right switches to apply to sort on the
other side of a pipe, but I have often wanted to sort the results of du
in descending order and have it get it how to parse the -s(ummary) -h
(uman) readable output.
So instead of:
$ du -sh /var/log/*

Currently, du -x properly excludes other filesystems that are mounted.
But if the same filesystem is mounted again with -o bind (linux, possibly
other oses), it still includes them in the count.
An option to exclude them from the count as well would be convenient.

Why? What can we add to du that can't already be done by
pipelining du output into sort?
Because it is useful. As ano

Bu
The '-c' option tells du to print a grand total, after having printed
whatever else it is going to output.
The '-s' option tells du to print only a total for each path argument,
rather than recursively printing the total for each subdirectory of each
path argument which is a directory.
