emerge --sync makes a call to rsync program ? I did not take the time |
| 2 |
yet to learn more about Gentoo specific softwares, but I will do that |
| 3 |
soon. Look at the sizes format in bytes. Today it often happens -well, |
| 4 |
most of the time- several Mo of download, so the byte unit is not very |
| 5 |
useful but Kb/Mb/Gb units could be a more human readable format. I |
| 6 |
used to deal with --si or -H when using df as an example. By default, |
| 7 |
size unit is byte, but when you want to understand the numbers with no |
| 8 |
mental extra operation, It is quite good to print the more suitable |
| 9 |
unit. |

Let's see my previous example: |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
[...] |
| 14 |
Total transferred file size: 3030220 bytes |
| 15 |
[...] |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
well, if a 'human readable option' was available, we can imagine the |
| 18 |
output to be: |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
Total transferred file size: 2.89 Mb |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
Is there any way to do that ? |

Thank you. |
