I see you also add a --color description and code, and don't say what the 
problem being solved is.

If it is trickty to explain, then a two patch series may tease apart the 
issues. perhaps add the --color option first (noting you'll use it in the 
next patch), then a second patch that explains about the --default problem.

The patch title should be something like "[PATCH 1/n] config: add --default 
option"

You may also want to explain the test rationale, and maybe split them if 
appropriate.
