If output is going to $PAGER, isatty() returns false, so the patch just passes the control codes on unmodified. My pager doesn't support ANSI control codes. That's okay, though, because the default git configuration does not generate control codes when isatty() returns false, and I get control-code-free (and also colourless) output in my pager.
