color: respect HGPLAINEXCEPT=color to allow colors while scripting (issue5749) I'd also like --color=always on the command-line to override HGPLAIN=1 et al, but that's more work, and this seems like a better fix. We've got a fair number of programs that actually want to automate hg and get colored output to users, so they should set HGPLAINEXCEPT=alias (what we usually recommend), but this has been breaking them because they then lose color. .. feature:: The ``HGPLAINEXCEPT`` environment variable can now include ``color`` to allow automatic output colorization in otherwise automated environments.
