nushell: crash on ls -la
Describe the bug
I might be doing something wrong, I just started using nushell. However, I expected ls -la to give me an extended view of the current directory. Instead, it crashes nushell. Even if ls -la is not something you should do (I’m still quite new to the project, there might be another way to get this information) I didn’t expect it to crash nu.
How to reproduce
- use nu v 0.60.0
- run ‘ls -la’
Expected behavior
Not crash, ideally give me directory information
