Why not make your own? Open up ~/.bash_profile
or ~/.bashrc
or /etc/bashrc
(open that one with sudo
) and add the following line at the bottom:
alias tree='find . -print | sed -e "s;[^/]*/;|____;g;s;____|; |;g"'
Now log out and log back in and your tree
command should work - albeit lacking some function of the utility, no doubt :)
I tested this, but thanks to http://osxdaily.com/2016/09/09/view-folder-tree-terminal-mac-os-tree-equivalent/ for coming up with the idea.

brew install tree
Windows and Linux already have the function, so Mac needs installation.

If you're using Homebrew on your Mac, simply use brew install tree
command on your terminal.

If you dont have availability to install tree in linux, but you have installed gio, you can use gio tree
with similar functionality.

If you are using Linux, try this: sudo apt install tree.
Hope it works.
