## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

diskus is a Rust command-line utility positioned as a minimal, fast alternative to `du -sh`. It computes the total size of the current directory and focuses on doing that one job quickly, with benchmark comparisons against `du` and other Rust disk-usage tools in the upstream README.

### Projektgeschichte

The GitHub repository was created in November 2018, and release tags started the same month. Later releases continued through 2025, showing a small but maintained utility rather than a one-off experiment.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

The README documents installation through release packages, Arch, Void, Homebrew, MacPorts, Haiku, NixOS, and Cargo. That mix is typical for sharkdp-style Rust CLIs: useful as standalone binaries, but also easy for distribution maintainers to carry because the behavior is simple and the upstream packaging story is clear.

### Wie es verwendet wird

The usual workflow is simply running `diskus` in a directory to print a human-readable total and byte count. The README also documents disk-usage versus apparent-size behavior and directory counting semantics so users can reason about differences from `du`.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

diskus is interesting because it deliberately resists becoming a full disk browser. Its package appeal is the opposite of feature accumulation: a fast, parallelized `du -sh` replacement that complements richer tools such as `dust`.

### Zeitleiste

- 2018-11: GitHub repository created
- 2018-11: early 0.3.x and 0.5.0 releases published
- 2025-12: v0.9.0 release published

### Related projects

- The upstream README compares diskus with `du`, `tin-summer`, and `dust`, and uses `hyperfine` for benchmark runs.
