I am not sure, If this is a right list, Is there a git users mailing list too somewhere out there ? Anyway the question is simple,

I have git version git version 1.5.6.3, on 1 system and get the colors right during a git commit (commit editor being vim..) On another machine with same vim version and same gitconfig and pretty much all the same settings except that the git version is git version 1.6.3.3, I don't have color in the commit editor...

Moving to newer GIT versions didn't help either... What am I missing?

regards, Pavan
