exa is unmaintained, please use the active fork eza instead.

A lot of work has already been put into it by other people, and I’ll be porting my ongoing work to this fork. Sadly, @ogham seems unreachable so I can’t really archive the project… for now, I’ll redirect people to eza, from the README and issues page.

A page is turning for me: it was great maintaining exa on my own for a while but it wasn’t sustainable and I was in burnout, I’m so glad people finally created a fork that I could contribute to instead of having to handle the whole thing.

Second occurrence of exa in the current title should probably read eza?

You can archive this repository, to mark it as unmaintained. People then cannot submit PRs and there is a big warning that this is archived.

IMHO this would make it more obvious this is not maintained anymore.

Edit: Oh sorry just read your OP, forget it, you said that there already.

Anyway, thanks for maintaining it so long! 🤗

exa is no longer maintained. eza is a new community-based fork that
continues that work.

`exa` is unmaintained: ogham/exa#1243
Switch to the recommended community fork (which seems to have critical
mass activity).

Just found this issue when today, Thursday, July 25, 2024, for the first time brew let me know that exa was unmaintained.

@ariasuni , thanks for all your work keeping exa going, and for taking the time to help people find eza. I really appreciate all your hard work and hope you're doing well with your current endeavors.

According to [this][issue], `exa` is now unmaintained. It recommends
to use the actively maintained [`eza`][eza] fork instead.

No idea, I didn’t hear from him since 2021-04-03, but his website is still up. Last activity from his part I can find online is a retweet on twitter dot com of a post from 2022-07-06.
