Hello everyone,
     I will like us to discuss on this topic to add a new command into
git that will enable us to print the entire working tree in a git
repository. Something similar to work happens when you run the linux
command: "pstree".
     This is important in searching and also more that i will be
discussing while talking about the idea. Thanks and if there is
anything to say about this, feel free to comment.

Regards Alangi Derick Ndimnain

With discussions i have on the irc channel(#git) i just noticed there is the git ls-tree command but it doesn't format the tree so it will be a good thing for the tree to be formatted. I will like to embark on the project. Regards Alangi Derick Ndimnain

Sorry for topping post, i forgot. Just like i said above, it will be good that commands like; git ls-tree, git ls-files and more commands of git that list directories to do them in a tree-like manner.
