bugreport

Thank you for filling out a Git bug report! Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue.

What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)
* open Git Gui in a repository from git bash ($ git gui&)
* select some text in the diff pane

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)
* selected text should be highlighted with white text on blue
background (maybe it used to use system defined colors?)

What happened instead? (Actual behavior)
* selected text is highlighted with white text on black background

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?
* The contrast has increased to a level that is painful for me to look
at, making it difficult to read the selected text.
* It also makes the experience of this tool different from gitk,
making me focus on the tool rather than the content and workflow.

Anything else you want to add:

Hi Ole,

thanks for the report. It's a known bug, a fix for this is already in the works.

Best, Stefan
