Subject: odd behavior with export LESS=i
Message-ID: <3a69fa7c0907141018l4f6fb773o219b6a18effc393d@mail.gmail.com>

Is this a problem with less or with git?

>From the shell if I run:

export LESS
LESS=i git log

then I see things like ESC[33m instead of colored text.

If I run:

unset LESS
git log

then I get colored text.

Note that the environment variable LESS is used to pass default
command line switches to less.
