title: Git pretty format colors
body: <p>I'm trying to set up pretty format colors for Git.  From what I can tell version 1.6.0 only recognizes red, green and blue.</p>
  
  <pre><code>$ git log --pretty=format:"%Credred%Creset %Cgreengreen%Creset %Cyellowyellow%Creset %Cblueblue%Creset %Cmagentamagenta%Creset %Ccyancyan%Creset %Cwhitewhite%Creset"
  red green %Cyellowyellow%Creset blue %Cmagentamagenta %Ccyancyan %Cwhitewhite
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>In addition none of the colors work with the parenthesized color format.</strong></p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to list the available pretty format colors for Git?</p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately this is on a legacy SCO OpenServer 5.0.7 machine and the last version of Git released by SCO Skunkworks was 1.6.0.3.</p>
