amccarth added a comment. I'm just responding to the questions @labath raised without really looking at the details of the code.
I agree that there's nothing wrong with having the ability to output color codes to a file, but it's a surprising default and experience tells me it would break a lot of tests that are rightfully looking just at the content rather than the styling. But having the ability to turn on color for file output would make it possible to also test styling, an ability we don't currently have. Plumbing the option for color and other niceties down to a low level sounds like a great idea, as long as we get the defaults right. For Windows (for now) and for output redirected to a file, the default should be off. That said, I could see lowering of the color option being a separate effort outside the scope of this patch. For one thing, we'd have to get buy-in from the more general LLVM folks. And several of the llvm utilities currently use the `WithColor` approach, so there could be a lot of work updating those (or they would continue to use the old approach indefinitely).
