Let's say I want to get the size of each folder of a linux file system. When I use ls -la
I don't really get the summarized size of the folders.
If I use df
I get the size of each mounted file system but that also doesn't help me. And with du
I get the size of each subfolder and the summary of the whole file system.
But I want to have only the summarized size of each folder within the ROOT folder of the file system. Is there any command to achiev that?
