OK but it makes log.graphColors add empty colors though. In t4202.39,
we have " blue,invalid-color, cyan, red , ". With this patch the color
after red would be no color. Without it, we get a complaint and the
next color would be cycled back to blue. The test does not catch this
because the test graph does not have enough fork points to get to red
and back to blue.

I suppose this is ok after your documentation patch ("that's by
design!"). Just wanted to point it out in case I miss something.
