Thank you for filling out a Git bug report! Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue. What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue) Logged on to a hard terminal and ran 'git status .' and 'git pull'. What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior) I expected that colour sequences would not be output, or at least not hardcoded to ANSI standard. In the case of 'pull', I expected that the stats would be just printed using <string>\r. What happened instead? (Actual behavior) I got escape sequences that made the output unreadable. What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? One produces mangled ouptut and the other doesn't. Anything else you want to add: I searched google and the documentation as best I was able for this, but I am unable to find anywhere that will let me disable (or enable) colour for a particular term type. Sometimes I'm on an xterm, for which this is GREAT. Sometimes I'm on a Wyse WY60, for which this is sub-optimal. My workaround is to disable colour completely, which is reluctantly acceptable, but it would be nice to say "If I'm on an xterm/aterm/urxvt/ansi terminal, enable colour or cursor-positioning, otherwise shut it off." If this seems too much of a one-off to handle, fine, but most things that talk fancy to screens are kind enough to allow an opt-out based on terminal type. :) Please review the rest of the bug report below.
