Git Configuration: Colorize Output

Git has this feature that allows its terminal output to be colorized.

There are various options to do that, and one of it is through the color.ui

You can choose how you want the terminal coloring but if you want to colorize all git output, set color.ui to true

git config --global color.ui true

Here are the settings you may use for color.ui:

true → set colors to all git terminal output
false → never colors the output
always → always set colors to the output even when piping git with another command

Setting specific colors to git commands

git config --global color.branch true
git config --global color.diff true
git config --global color.status true
git config --global color.log true
