Aw yeah, another command-line coloring post!

John Schulz pointed me to this git cheat sheat. Right up front it provides the settings in ~/.gitconfig to color git command output like git diff, git status, and git branch. Here’s what I’m rocking:

[core]
  quotepath = false
  whitespace=fix,-indent-with-non-tab,trailing-space,cr-at-eol
[color]
  ui = true
[color "branch"]
  current = yellow black
  local = yellow
  remote = magenta
[color "diff"]
  meta = yellow bold
  frag = magenta bold
  old = red reverse
  new = green reverse
  whitespace = white reverse
[color "status"]
  added = yellow
  changed = green
  untracked = cyan reverse
  branch = magenta

Which looks like:
