What I usually use is diff.color.old='red reverse' because I cannot easily tell between black and dark red in small font on my white background. s/reverse/strike/ makes it much less noisy.

Without screen, strike shows but inside it I cannot seem to be able to get strike-thru in effect. -- 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
