[PATCH 11/16] Add ls command

From
Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <pclouds@gmail.com>
Date
Feb 9, 2011, 12:24 UTC

<1297254284-3729-1-git-send-email-pclouds@gmail.com>

The command is supposed to be git variant of UNIX ls. Currently it's just a stripped down version of ls-files with some porcelain touch:

 - auto refreshing index
 - setup standard excludes
