Hi Everyone,

When I updated from git-2.10.2 to git-2.13.2 my 'color.branch.local' config setting gets ignored. Corresponding 'remote' or 'current' settings are honored and work as expected

Relevant parts of my config file is:
  [color "branch"]
    current=  reverse
    local  = red bold
    remote = green bold

I am on macosx-10.11.6 El Capitan. Git installation courtesy of homebrew.

Using command $ git branch -a --color=always I see current branch in reverse, remote branches in green, but local branches in default color (black)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, --Leo
