From 1b799e9762067f912c0eb807cd5a55d8f122adfd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Marc=20Cornell=C3=A0?= Date: Wed, 2 Nov 2016 15:39:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Check dircolors settings before using gls on darwin (#5570) `gls` seems to be installed by default or on most macOS systems, but its default color scheme sucks. This fix will make sure to only use it if it has been customised prior to running OMZ.
