ANSI color codes 90-97 and 100-107 are brighter versions of the 30-37
and 40-47 colors.  To view them, run `colortest-16`.  In that
colortest, they are named with a leading "+".  Maybe git config could
support those colors, too, with a leading plus in the name?  They are
nice for having a different shade of a color in a diff.

Here's a patch with tests.  I don't know how to submit it.  Thoughts?

Depending on your terminal, you can already access these colors via
256-color mode. Generally 0-7 are the standard colors there, then 8-15
are the "bright" variants, and then an rgb cube.

You can see how your terminal displays all of them with something like
this:

  reset=$(git config --type=color --default=reset foo.bar)
  for i in $(seq 0 255); do
    color=$(git config --type=color --default="$i" foo.bar)
    echo "$color$i$reset"
  done

Some terminals also show "bold red" as bright red, but many modern ones
seem to actually provide a bold font.

That said, I'm not entirely opposed to having more human-readable
aliases. I'm not sure if it's worth using the 16-color version (e.g.,
"ESC[91m" versus the 256-color version "ESC[38;5;9m"). It's possible it
would be compatible with more terminals, and it is slightly fewer bytes.

What's AXITERM? I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere around ANSI codes.

I kind of wonder if we could just call these ANSI as well, and have
color_output() just decide whether to add an offset of 60 when we see a
color number between 8 and 15. Or possibly c->value should just have the
60-offset value in the first place.

This "type" field was already pretty ugly, and I think your patch makes
it even worse. It would probably be less bad if we just passed in the
integer 30 instead of '3', and then do:

  /* handles ANSI; your bright colors would want to add 60 */
  out += xsnprintf(out, len, "%d", type + c->value);

And then likewise the 256-color and rgb paths would do:

  out += xsnprintf(out, len, "%d;5;%d", type + 8, c->value);

Bonus points for declaring:

  enum {
    COLOR_FOREGROUND = 30,
    COLOR_BACKGROUND = 40,
  } color_ground;

to make the caller more readable.

This BUG() can go away. The point was to make sure we don't overflow
"out", but xsnprintf() will check that for us (that's why there isn't
one in the COLOR_256 and COLOR_RGB case arms).

And if we can handle the regular/bright stuff instead of color_output(),
we don't need to have this extra fg.type check.

Yes.  According to the wikipedia page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANSI_escape_code#Colors :

     0-  7:  standard colors (as in ESC [ 30–37 m)
     8- 15:  high intensity colors (as in ESC [ 90–97 m)
    16-231:  6 × 6 × 6 cube (216 colors): 16 + 36 × r + 6 × g + b (0 ≤
r, g, b ≤ 5)
   232-255:  grayscale from black to white in 24 steps

So 8bit 0-7 and 8bit 8-15 match the ANSI colors 30-37 and 90-97.  The
background color versions match 40-47 and 100-107.

On my desktop, the RGB and ANSI colors match in color as described above.

My motivation for this patch was to fix the github workflow log output
that doesn't support 8bit colors properly.  Only the "ANSI" colors
0-15 worked.  None of the 8-bit colors worked except for 30-37, 40-47,
90-97, and 100-107, which matched the ANSI colors.  That is a very
broken color scheme!  But that's how it displayed.

Oops, I misread it.  The wikipedia page mentions it, it's "aixterm".

Done in a slightly different way.

That makes sense. I'm not too surprised to see a terminal that supports
one but not the other.

But I wonder if there are ones that go the other way around: supporting
256-color mode but not ANSI 90-97, etc. I doubt it, but I think it would
be nice to split that change out into a separate commit in case we do
run into problems.

> Done.  Here's a new patch!

Thanks. The content here is looking pretty good (though I have a few
comments below).

Can you also format it as described in Documentation/SubmittingPatches
and re-send? In particular, it needs a regular commit message and your
signoff.

The split in this enum mostly makes sense to me. It changes the meaning
of "value" for COLOR_ANSI, but this is all local to color.c, so your
changes to output_color() are all that's needed.

It might be easier to follow the patch if switching to this enum came in
a separate preparatory patch.

It would be slightly simpler and more efficient handle the "+" outside
the loop, like:

  int offset = COLOR_FOREGROUND_ANSI;
  if (*name == '+') {
          offset = COLOR_FOREGROUND_BRIGHT_ANSI;
	  name++;
	  len--;
  }

and then in the loop just set "out->value = i + offset".

You'd probably want to hoist this out to a separate function since
"name" needs to be unchanged in the later part of the function.

I dunno. It's almost certainly an unmeasurable micro-optimization, but
somehow the flow of it seems simpler to me.

I also wondered if we'd want English aliases like "brightred" that some
other systems use. It would be easy to add that to the check I showed
above without having to repeat as much.

And I think this 8-15 handling might want to be a separate commit on
top, just because it's possible it might regress some cases (though
again, I do doubt it).

Looks like some unwanted tab/space conversion (here and elsewhere).

s/axi/aix/ (here and below).

Makes sense.

Thanks.  I think that 3 patches are in order.  The first will refactor
and add the enums.  The second will add the aixterm colors.  The last
will alias RGB 8-15 to aixterm colors.

What's the correct way to email those patches?  I will try with
git-send-email.  BTW, is "git help send-email" supposed to work?

I sent out my patches.  Can someone take a look?
