I'm not sure about ls. As for this tool all it seems to add is git status, but it's not working for me for some reason (not sure why) so I can't comment on the usefulness of this.
I do think some other coreutils could be replaced. cp for example, doesn't give you a progress bar so if you are copying a very large file it could take 2 minutes or 2 hours. I suppose you could create a wrapper for cp that repeatedly ls-es the destination directory to give you a progress of the copy.
