NAME
|
||||
ncdu - NCurses Disk Usage
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
ncdu [-hqvx] [--exclude PATTERN] [-X FILE] dir
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
ncdu (NCurses Disk Usage) is a curses-based version of the well-known
|
||||
'du', and provides a fast way to see what directories are using your
|
||||
disk space.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
OPTIONS
|
||||
-h Print a small help message
|
||||
|
||||
-q Quiet mode. While calculating disk space, ncdu will update the
|
||||
screen 10 times a second by default, this will be decreased to
|
||||
once every 2 seconds in quiet mode. Use this feature to save
|
||||
bandwidth over remote connections.
|
||||
|
||||
-v Print version.
|
||||
|
||||
-x Only count files and directories on the same filesystem as the
|
||||
specified dir.
|
||||
|
||||
--exclude PATTERN
|
||||
Exclude files that match PATTERN. This argument can be added
|
||||
multiple times to add more patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
-X FILE, --exclude-from FILE
|
||||
Exclude files that match any pattern in FILE. Patterns should be
|
||||
separated by a newline.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
KEYS
|
||||
? Show help + keys + about screen
|
||||
|
||||
up, down j, k
|
||||
Cycle through the items
|
||||
|
||||
right, enter, l
|
||||
Open selected directory
|
||||
|
||||
left, <, h
|
||||
Go to parent directory
|
||||
|
||||
n Order by filename (press again for descending order)
|
||||
|
||||
s Order by filesize (press again for descending order)
|
||||
|
||||
a Toggle between showing disk usage and showing apparent size.
|
||||
|
||||
d Delete the selected file or directory. An error message will be
|
||||
shown when the contents of the directory do not match or do not
|
||||
exist anymore on the filesystem.
|
||||
|
||||
t Toggle dirs before files when sorting.
|
||||
|
||||
g Toggle between showing percentage, graph, both, or none. Per-
|
||||
centage is relative to the size of the current directory, graph
|
||||
is relative to the largest item in the current directory.
|
||||
|
||||
e Show/hide 'hidden' or 'excluded' files and directories. Please
|
||||
note that even though you can't see the hidden files and direc-
|
||||
tories, they are still there and they are still included in the
|
||||
directory sizes. If you suspect that the totals shown at the
|
||||
bottom of the screen are not correct, make sure you haven't
|
||||
enabled this option.
|
||||
|
||||
i Show information about the current selected item.
|
||||
|
||||
r Refresh/recalculate the current directory.
|
||||
|
||||
q Quit
|
||||
|

|
||||
HARD LINKS
|
||||
Every disk usage analysis utility has its own way of (not) counting
|
||||
hard links. There does not seem to be any universally agreed method of
|
||||
handling hard links, and it is even inconsistent among different ver-
|
||||
sions of ncdu. This section explains what each version of ncdu does.
|
||||
|
||||
ncdu 1.5 and below does not support any hard link detection at all:
|
||||
each link is considered a separate inode and its size is counted for
|
||||
every link. This means that the displayed directory sizes are incorrect
|
||||
when analyzing directories which contain hard links.
|
||||
|
||||
ncdu 1.6 has basic hard link detection: When a link to a previously
|
||||
encountered inode is detected, the link is considered to have a file
|
||||
size of zero bytes. Its size is not counted again, and the link is
|
||||
indicated in the browser interface with a 'H' mark. The displayed
|
||||
directory sizes are only correct when all links to an inode reside
|
||||
within that directory. When this is not the case, the sizes may or may
|
||||
not be correct, depending on which links were considered as "duplicate"
|
||||
and which as "original". The indicated size of the topmost directory
|
||||
(that is, the one specified on the command line upon starting ncdu) is
|
||||
always correct.
|
||||
|
||||
ncdu 1.7 has improved hard link detection. Each file that has more than
|
||||
two links has the "H" mark visible in the browser interface. Each hard
|
||||
link is counted exactly once for every directory it appears in. The
|
||||
indicated size of each directory is therefore, correctly, the sum of
|
||||
the sizes of all unique inodes that can be found in that directory.
|
||||
Note, however, that this may not always be same as the space that will
|
||||
be reclaimed after deleting the directory, as some inodes may still be
|
||||
accessible from hard links outside it.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
BUGS
|
||||
Directory hard links are not supported. They will not be detected as
|
||||
being hard links, and will thus be scanned and counted multiple times.
|
||||
|
||||
Some minor glitches may appear when displaying filenames that contain
|
||||
multibyte or multicolumn characters.
|
||||
