tree

show the directory structure

tree -dfi --noreport rootDir

Next, let’s walk through the options we passed to the tree command and understand what they mean:

  • -d: We ask the tree command to print directories only

  • -f: The tree command will print the full path for us

  • -i: Usually, tree outputs in a tree format. In other words, lines are well indented in the output. However, this option will prevent tree from printing indentation lines

  • –noreport: This flag suppresses the summary report at the end of the output, such as “x directories, y files
