STAT directive: Details of File/file system display (view file properties).
The stat command is primarily used to display detailed information about a file or file system, which has the following syntax:
-F does not display information about the file itself and displays information about the file system where the file resides
-L Display Symbolic links
-T compact mode, displaying only summary information
In fact, the stat command displays the I node information for the file. The Linux file system stores information in blocks, and each file is indexed with the I node in order to find the location of the storage space where the file resides.
The so-called I node, which is a data structure for file system management, is a 64-byte long table that contains all the information necessary to describe the file, including the size, type, access permissions, and the owner = = of the file
