Linus posted a colorize program a while back[1] but it wasn't taken into git.
The patch below takes a different approach, adding a GIT_DIFF_PAGER variable.
You can use it by assigning a filter to the environment variable, like so:
export GIT_DIFF_PAGER="colordiff | less -RS"

P.S. .gitignore is missing a few entries: "git.spec" (rpm build), "tags"
(ctags), and ".*.swp" (vi editor temp files).
