After getting tired of the default cygwin terminal, I decide to try rxvt
. Everything seems fine except one thing: the color schemes for my git repositories stop working.
BTW other color schemes like the vim
editor works fine under rxvt
. I also ran this script to ensure that 256 colors are enabled.
My ~/.gitconfig
looks something like this:
[user]
name = xyz
email = [email protected]
[color]
diff = auto
status = auto
branch = auto
[core]
autocrlf = false
If change all settings in ~/.gitconfig color section from "auto" to "always", then MSYSGit coloring work even in rxvt/mintty
[color]
ui = always
status = always
branch = always
diff = always
interactive = always
Thanks to suggestion by ak2, I solved this problem by switching from msysgit to cygwin's git.
