The feature I'd be most interested in here is the integration with git, but I don't see an example on the site that demonstrates that. If the author is reading this, could you please add one? (Or maybe point it out, if I'm just missing it?)


You're right -- I missed it out! Could have sworn I put one in one of the screenshots, too...

In any case, I've been working on a new site for exa, with much better documentation and actual explanations for what the features are, and that has one in it. So you'll have to wait a bit longer I'm afraid. (I could link a screenshot here if you'd like one)


Yah there's git integration, re read site ctrl+f "git"


swift knows that. They're asking for an example of the output of exa in a git repo.


if you pass --long --git you'll have a column that shows git status.

using color to show git status in normal view would be much more interesting to me.
