I like this at the conceptual level. If you say "%C(auto)%C(red)Text%C(auto)%C(reset)", does it do the right thing when the output is not capable of color? I am a bit worried if the placement of the "grab c->auto_color to decide if we paint for this round and reset it" is optimial and will stay optimal as we enhance format_commit_one() later. Is there a reason why we do not do that at the beginning of the function, before "these are independent of the commit" comment? Side note. Should the new field called "auto_color_next" or something? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
