Unit sizes #171

Closed HaleTom closed 2 years ago

HaleTom commented 2 years ago

Which units are the K, G, M, T specified in the man page?

SI (increases by 10^3) or IEC (increases by 2^10)?

Generally blocks are specified in KiB (IEC).

In the --size section, you seem to be missing P == 1024 or 1000 = G.
