Hi PA,

When replying to emails on this list, please do not put your reply
above the quoted text, and do not quote the entire message you're
answering to. This makes it unnecessarily hard for other readers to
understand the context of your email. Instead, please cut quoted parts
that are not relevant to your reply, and insert your responses right
after the points you're replying to (as I have done below). Thanks!

As far as I know, there is no such information from most
backends. Google Storage, Amazon S3, OpenStack et al all have
effectively unlimited storage. I believe only the local backend could
effectively report a capacity. Which backend do you have in mind?

But even if we got a number from the backend, it's not clear what we
should report to df. How do we take into account compression and
deduplication?


Best,
