The new ls doesn't maintain backwards compatibility.
The default options now add extraneous quotes to
some filenames.

Anyplace one uses 'ls -1' to read 1 file/line
now breaks.

This is a regression as it breaks existing
scripts and behavior.

Hello,

'ls' did not recently add any more cases where tty output differs from
non-tty output when all other things are equal in the default state.
All that changed was that tty output is formatted differently than it
has been in the past.

We created a summary of common issues and FAQs
regarding the quoting change in ls(1):

If there is an issue that is not addressed there,
please send an email to address@hidden .

regards,
