The contents of this table is no longer tied to COLOR_MAXLEN. The
above entries used by default happen to be shorter, but it is
misleading.
static const char *branch_colors[] = {
"%(color:reset)",
...
};
perhaps?
More importantly, does this re-definition of the branch_colors[]
work with custom colors filled in git_branch_config() by calling
e.g. color_parse("red", branch_colors[BRANCH_COLOR_REMOTE]), where
"red" and "remote" come from an existing configuration file?
[color "branch"]
remote = red
It obviously would not work if you changed the type of branch_colors[]
because the color_parse() wants the caller to have allocated space
of COLOR_MAXLEN.
But if filling these ANSI escape sequence into the format works OK,
then doesn't it tell us that we do not need to have this change to
use "%(color:reset)" etc. as the new default values?
