in README
Cargo now lets people install binaries by running `cargo install`. This can be more convenient than cloning and building exa manually.

|

|

exa depends on [libgit2](https://github.com/alexcrichton/git2-rs) for certain features.
|
||||
If you’re unable to compile libgit2, you can opt out of Git support by running `cargo build --release --no-default-features`.

|

### Cargo Install
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using a recent version of Cargo (0.5.0 or higher), you can
|
||||
use the `cargo install` command:
|
||||
|
||||
cargo install --git https://github.com/ogham/exa
|
||||
|
||||
or:
|
||||
|
||||
cargo install --no-default-features --git https://github.com/ogham/exa
|
||||
|
||||
Cargo will clone the repository to a temporary directory, build it
|
||||
there and place the `exa` binary to: `$HOME/.cargo` (and can be
|
||||
overridden by setting the `--root` option).
