color: add a 'ui.color' option to control color behavior
This new option control whether or not color will be used. It mirror the behavior
of '--color'. I usually avoid adding new option to '[ui]' as the section is
already filled with many option. However, I feel like 'color' is central enough
to deserves a spot in this '[ui]' section.
For now the option is not documented so it is still marked as experimental. Once
it get documented and official, we should be able to deprecate the color
extensions.
There is more cleanup to do before that documentation is written, but we need
this option early to made them. Having that option will allow for more cleanup
of the initialisation process and proper separation between color
configuration.
Initial setup.
$ hg init repo
$ cd repo
$ touch thefile
$ hg ci -A -m 'Initial commit.'
adding thefile
Create a tag.
$ hg tag branchortag
Create a branch with the same name as the tag.
$ hg branch branchortag
marked working directory as branch branchortag
(branches are permanent and global, did you want a bookmark?)
$ hg ci -m 'Create a branch with the same name as a tag.'
This is what we have:
