Forwarding colored output

[cbuchart]

It should be nice to forward the colored output from the command (it is very helpful in the git commands, for example, for a quicklook at the results).

@cbuchart, could you send me a couple of snapshot?

I am not understanding what are you talking about exactly...

Something like this (the untracked file is in red):

Another example is git pull, when it downloads changes the output is also colored (green for additions, red for deletions).

@cbuchart It is "quite" complex fix this problem. Originally the color is produced using ANSI escape sequences. The terminal or console has the responsibility of color preservation paying attention to the color escape sequences. PFS is calling to external shell and this external shell in Windows is CMD by default (and maybe by mandatory way). Linux shell usually doesn't present this type of problems.

As you can see the problem for color fixing it is not straightforward in its resolution.
