How can I create an alias in Windows for the “DIR” command?

I’m working both in UNIX (Ubuntu WSL) and Windows(-11).

In both platforms I have a similar problem:

  • In Ubuntu WSL, I want the grep command always to use the '-a' switch.
  • In Windows, I want the dir command always to use the /A switch.

In Ubuntu WSL, this is fairly simple, as you can see:

WSL Prompt>grep "grep" ~/.bashrc
alias grep='grep -a --color=auto'
alias fgrep='fgrep -a --color=auto'
alias egrep='egrep -a --color=auto'

(This works because that .bashrc file is called from ~/.profile.)
This results in:

WSL Prompt>alias grep
alias grep='grep -a --color=auto'

… and indeed: when launching grep, I don’t get any warnings about binary files.

In my Windows environment, I was just looking for a GIT directory, with following results:

Windows command prompt>C:Development>dir /S /B ".git"
File Not Found

=> Are you kidding???

Windows command prompt>C:Development>dir /S /B /A ".git"
C:DevelopmentworkareaCustomer1.git
C:DevelopmentworkareaSolution1.git
C:DevelopmentworkareaSolution2.git

=> Ok, that makes sense, so I would like that /A always to be added to my DIR command.

How?
