Thank you for your suggestion. It occurred to me that this might be a
preferable way to do things[1] after I sent the patch, but I am glad
that you suggested it here explicitly.

That said, I think that this patch has moved on from the code change,
after some discussion between Junio and Peff, so I think that I will
leave this (and the rest of the code changes) behind.

Thanks,
Taylor

[1] ... preferable in the way that we don't have to write "\\033[31m" in
    the test.
