You are right in calling this out an emerging new thing, but the second list of that page proves that it will be useful to settle on a common configuration, and my hope is by getting a few popular projects on board, others will soon follow. It certainly is easy to implement, and rather unintrusive. Users which don't know about this feature are completely unaffected. >> if (color_stdout_is_tty < 0) >> color_stdout_is_tty = isatty(1); >> if (color_stdout_is_tty || (pager_in_use() && pager_use_color)) { > > According to no-color.org's FAQ #2, NO_COLOR should affect only the > "default" behaviour, and should stay back if there is an explicit > end-user configuration (or command line override).

Should this also be tested? It doesn't quite fit into the setting of t4026-color.sh I think. Thanks, -- Leah Neukirchen <leah@xxxxxxxx> http://leah.zone
