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.
