Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- This is on top of the previous two patches: git-status: colorize status output (me) git-status: do not use colors all the time (Matthias) I was hoping to join the term selection logic with the diff.color logic in git_config_termbool or similar (and a git-repo-config --termbool), but unfortunately that doesn't work since git-repo-config can't do an isatty test (since we call it as `git-repo-config`). In general, config parsing is a little awkward (and inefficient) in sh. Is there any interest in me converting git-commit/git-status to C builtins (I know Johannes will be happy...)?
