The options are as follows:

Display the apparent size instead of the disk usage. This can be helpful when operating on compressed volumes or sparse files. | |
| |
Calculate block counts in
blocksize
byte blocks.
This is different from the
| |
| |
Symbolic links on the command line are followed, symbolic links in file hierarchies are not followed. | |
| |
Ignore files and directories matching the specified mask. | |
| |
Symbolic links on the command line and in file hierarchies are followed. | |
| |
No symbolic links are followed. This is the default. | |
| |
Display an entry for each file in a file hierarchy. | |
| |
Display a grand total. | |
| |
Display an entry for all files and directories depth directories deep. | |
| |
Display block counts in 1073741824-byte (1 GiB) blocks. | |
| |
"Human-readable" output. Use unit suffixes: Byte, Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte, Terabyte and Petabyte based on powers of 1024. | |
| |
Display block counts in 1024-byte (1 kiB) blocks. | |
| |
If a file has multiple hard links, count its size multiple times.
The default behavior of

Ignore files and directories with user "nodump" flag ( UF_NODUMP) set. | |

Generate messages about directories that cannot be read, files that cannot be opened, and so on. This is the default case. This option exists solely for conformance with -xpg4. | |

Display only entries for which size exceeds threshold. If threshold is negative, display only entries for which size is less than the absolute value of threshold. | |

File system mount points are not traversed. | |
