+.UC 4
+.SH NAME
+convertquota \- convert quota from old file format to new one
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B convertquota
+[
+.B -ug
+]
+.I filesystem
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B convertquota
+converts old quota files
+.BR quota.user
+and

+to files
+.BR aquota.user
+and
+.BR aquota.group
+in new format currently used by kernels 2.4.0-ac? and newer on
+.IR filesystem .
+.PP
+New file format allows using quotas for 32-bit uids / gids, setting quotas for root,
+accounting used space in bytes (and so allowing use of quotas in ReiserFS) and it
+is also architecture independent. This format introduces radix trie (a simple form of tree
+structure) to quota file.
