I'm trying to use git-graph. I have installed it, but I cannot obtain the output I see in the screenshots. In particular when I run it with its own repository from the Gnome terminal in Ubuntu, the colours are missing:

I did not configure anything, but used it "as is". I would expect to have a more colourful output, as shown in the screenshots in the github page.

Is this a problem with the colours in the terminal?

  • have you tried adding --color or --color=always ? Commented Mar 8, 2024 at 10:41
  • Yes, --color=always leads to the same result. Using --color=none produces an actual b&w result. I mean, I have some colours, just not the ones shown in the screenshots in the documentation. They are purple, orange and mostly grey. Commented Mar 8, 2024 at 11:57
  • I would look into issues with how your terminal interprets and renders colors Commented Mar 8, 2024 at 12:01
  • I can see at least 4 different colors in the app's output: off-white for commit logs, brighter bluish gray for tags and branches, darker bluish gray for commit IDs, and a blue arrow at the bottom left corner. I strongly suspect that you have configured your terminal emulator to use a nontraditional palette of 16 colors, such as Solarized, or something similar. What happens if you revert in the terminal's preferences to a more traditional one, such as "xterm", "rxvt" or "linux console"? Commented Mar 8, 2024 at 22:45
