The `tree` utility outputs a full listing of everything in your current directory, and those below.
- Just directories: `tree -d`
- Output colour to `less`: `tree -C --info | less -re`
- Ignore files in the `.gitignore` file: `tree --gitignore`
You can place information about the files in a directory to use with the `tree --info` option, like this:
```
config
Config files.
This is a git submodule.
README.md
Summary of the git.
*.jpg
Little picture, does not display
words well.
```
Each description-line starts with a tab.
