my ‘git log’ shows plain ESC sequences – how to get this right?

Until right now my LESS environment variable did not include “R” for passing through ANSI codes.

Solutions:

  • Either I add “R” explicitly,
  • or I start git w/o LESS in its environment:

$ env LESS=-MMiR git log
$ env -u LESS git log
