Subject: bug#51507: ls incorrectly displays single quotes
Date: Fri, 29 Oct 2021 13:32:20 -0700

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
ls is incorrectly displaying single quotes around folders with spaces in
them. This is confusing and unhelpful.

A temporary fix is to use update my ls alias with -N, on every machine I
use, everywhere.
