From a408dc201879e70e6508f4269e031616739fc5a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kyle Evans Date: Thu, 21 May 2020 14:39:00 +0000 Subject: ls(1): actually restore proper behavior Highlights: - CLICOLOR in the environment should imply --color=auto to maintain compatibility with historical behavior - -G should set CLICOLOR and imply --color=auto The manpage has been updated to draw the connection between -G and --color; the former is in-fact a sort of compromise between --color=always and --color=auto, where we'll output color regardless of the environment lacking CLICOLOR/COLORTERM assuming stdout is a tty.
