  • -d, --list-dirs: list directories as regular files
  • -g, --group: show group as well as user
  • --git: show git status (depends on libgit2, see below)

You can sort by name, size, ext, inode, modified, created, accessed, or none.

Installation

exa is written in Rust. You'll have to use the nightly -- I try to keep it up to date with the latest version when possible. Once you have it set up, a simple make install will compile exa and install it into /usr/local/bin.

exa depends on libgit2 for certain features. If you're unable to compile libgit2, you can opt out of Git support by passing --no-default-features to Cargo.
