Fixes#288, but more-or-less as a side-effect.
The “mi” key in LS_COLORS was meant to be used for a missing link path, but it wasn’t really used like that. There was also a bug where control characters in a broken symlink’s path were assumed to be underlined, because that’s what happened in the default colour scheme, but this assumption doesn’t hold when colours were disabled.
The solution to these was not to introduce another configurable colour code, but to start using _overlays_ to alter a bunch of colours at once. The “mi” code will have to be added back later.
Again, it was hard to read and edit this text when it was in a string inside an echo command inside a bash script inside a heredoc inside a Ruby script wrapped in a mystery. It also gives me space to write some actual comments.
Having it all echo-ed into the file like that made it hard to read *and* hard to maintain. My initial aversion to it was that I didn’t want there to be an executable script in the main repository that only worked when you were in the VM, because people would just run it anyway. But this can be avoided by leaving it non-executable, and having a command in the VM that runs it instead.
The ‘package-exa’ script’s zip contained /vagrant/exa-linux-x86_64 instead of just exa-linux-x86_64, and I never noticed.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/9710181/3484614 told me what to do.
This doesn’t *completely* work: it seems to have trouble with ignored paths beginning with slashes, possibly amongst others. Also, .gitignore scanning could be made more efficient.
I changed my mind about which way round sorting by “newest” or by “oldest” should actually go. If you’re listing a large directory, you see the last lines of the output first, so these files should be the ones with the largest whatever the sort field is. It’s about sorting *last*, not sorting *first*. Sorting by size wouldn’t say “sorts smallest files first”, it would say “sorts largest files last”. Right?
Also, add a new suggestion that warns against “ls -lt”.
This commit changes the definition of Arg so that it knows about which values it can accept, and can display them in the help text. They were already being shown in the help text, but they were passed in separately, so one argument could show two different sets of options if it wanted. Now, the argument itself knows whether there are suggestions, so it doesn’t have to be passed in separately.
This means we can use it for other things, including listing choices when an option is missed out, without having to repeat the list.
With Misfire::BadArgument now only having two fields, it’s not worth using a constructor function anymore.
