+Moves the @var{end} position of partition @var{number}.  Note that this
+does not modify any filesystem present in the partition.  If you wish to
+do this, you will need to use external tools, such as @command{resize2fs}.
+
+When growing a partition you will want to grow the filesystem afterwards,
+but when shrinking, you need to shrink the filesystem before the partition.
