Package: git Version: 1:2.1.4-2.1+deb8u2 Severity: minor My ~/.gitconfig contains
[color] ui = never which should prevent attempts at colouring output from all git commands. I do not have any git configuration enabling colour in any situation (such as for specific commands). But when a git bisect completes, the output identifying the first bad commit includes escape sequences to colour the "commit 631..." line yellow. Excerpt of strace output: 11015 write(1, "613abc6d16e99bd9834fe6afd79beb61a3a4734d is the first bad commit\n", 65) = 65 11015 write(1, "\33[33mcommit 613abc6d16e99bd9834fe6afd79beb61a3a4734d\33[m\n", 56) = 56 Given the configulation, that line should be free of escape sequences. -zefram
