Robert Scholte commented on MNG-6220:
-------------------------------------

I really wonder if there's a need for this in the form of a commandline option. 
[~aheritier] WDYT? My idea is that we need to introduce extension points for 
better CI support, just like we did with Maven 3 for better IDE support.

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