Ah, I didn't know about the "normal" color. I tried using a blank value, which defaulted to "reset", so I thought there was no way to say "no ANSI sequence". The above was my workaround to get no sequence. Since the "normal" color exists, this workaround should be removed. The squash-able patch below removes the workaround, and also fixes another bug: color was not reset at the end of the line for hunk separators ("--"). As an aside, perhaps a blank color value should default to no ANSI sequence, rather than the reset sequence? diff --git i/builtin-grep.c w/builtin-grep.c index e423eac..c519fcf 100644 --- i/builtin-grep.c +++ w/builtin-grep.c @@ -318,8 +318,6 @@ if (!value) return config_error_nonbool(var); color_parse(value, var, color); - if (!strcmp(color, GIT_COLOR_RESET)) - color[0] = '\0'; } return 0; } diff --git i/grep.c w/grep.c index 1e0b1e6..b641305 100644 --- i/grep.c +++ w/grep.c @@ -533,12 +533,15 @@ if (opt->pre_context || opt->post_context) { if (opt->last_shown == 0) { - if (opt->show_hunk_mark) - output_color(opt, "--\n", 3, opt->color_sep); - else + if (opt->show_hunk_mark) { + output_color(opt, "--", 2, opt->color_sep); + opt->output(opt, "\n", 1); + } else opt->show_hunk_mark = 1; - } else if (lno > opt->last_shown + 1) - output_color(opt, "--\n", 3, opt->color_sep); + } else if (lno > opt->last_shown + 1) { + output_color(opt, "--", 2, opt->color_sep); + opt->output(opt, "\n", 1); + } } opt->last_shown = lno; -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
