Command to display the space usage (memory usage) of a specific directory.
Hi all,
Can you please tell me the command, with which one can know the amount of space a specific directory has used.
df -k . ---> Displays, the amount of space allocated, and used for a directory.
du -k <dir name> - gives me the memory used of all the files inside <dir>
But i want the to know, how much memory has one directory used on the whole. Not the memory used by the files & folders inside that directory.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Abhishek.
