Hello!
setterm only works on Linux terminal. It should be safe to use raw ANSI sequences -they work on most terminals, including xterm. Nobody forces you to use the "-c" option to "git log" on those stone-age terminals that neither support nor ignore ANSI color codes.
I'm aware of $'...' but it may not work in bash 1.x.
