Robert Scholte commented on MNG-6220:
-------------------------------------
Let's do it like all colors are controlled as well:
e.g.
{{set MAVEN_OPTS=-Dstyle.color=enabled}}
This is one option to enable it for *every* build.
{{mvn | less -R}}
or
{{mvn -Dstyle.color=enabled | less -R}}
> Add CLI options to control color output

> Currently, the only way to enable/disable color output is to use the
> batch-mode or log-file options.
> If a user wants colored output but no interactivity (ie: jenkins environment
> with the ansicolor plugin), there is no CLI option combination to support the
> use-case.
> I propose to add an option to control output coloring directly.

> --color=enabled <- color output always enabled
> --color=disabled <- color output always disabled
> --color=auto <- current behavior (default)
> {noformat}
