16 new flags plus a sorting bug fix, all additive and backward-compatible.
Added
- Filtering: -f/--only-files, --no-symlinks/--show-symlinks, -A/--almost-all, --group-directories-last
- Long view: -X/--dereference, --total-size, -Z/--context (SELinux), -M/--mounts (Linux), --git-repos/--git-repos-no-status/--no-git, --smart-group, --time-style=relative
- Display: --absolute, automatic quoting of filenames with spaces (+ --no-quotes), -w/--width, --stdin
Fixed
- --sort=extension no longer treats a directory's dotted suffix (e.g. backups.old) as a real extension
Notes
- --mounts is Linux-only
- -X only dereferences metadata columns, not the name/type
- --absolute has no =follow mode
- --git-repos doesn't recurse into nested repos
- --stdin never auto-triggers on piped input
