Bash: How can I list out the size of each file and directory (recursively) and sort by size decendingly?

filesizesInDir
content_copyfile_download
Simply navigate to directory and run following command:

du -a --max-depth=1 | sort -n
OR add -h for human readable sizes and -r to print bigger directories/files first.

du -a -h --max-depth=1 | sort -hr
