[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-4861) Add disk usage with human-readable size (-duh)

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4861?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Todd Lipcon updated HADOOP-4861:
--------------------------------

    Attachment: hadoop-4861.txt

This patch adds a -h flag to dfs -du and dfs -dus

It also refactors the two du functions to use the same code path and makes -du -s be synonymous with -dus

One breaking change is that the output format is now consistent between du and du -s, and it matches the Linux format (size on left, path on right). This may cause incompatibility with users who might parse the output of du, but I think it's worth it for consistency

> I think it'd be super useful to have a form of "hadoop dfs -du" that showed the sizes in human-readable format, as in the standard command "du -h".
