For example, my uname currently says: > CYGWIN_NT-10.0 Beren 2.8.0(0.309/5/3) 2017-04-01 20:47 x86_64 Cygwin > Reporter: Brian Oxley > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.5.2-candidate > > > Full description and workaround here: > https://binkley.blogspot.com/2017/04/maven-color-logging-on-cygwin.html > In short: the JANSI library used in Maven 3.5.0 does not detect Cygwin, and > falls back to no color. There is a workaround (Zart Colwing): Add > {{-Djansi.passthrough=true}} to {{MAVEN_OPTS}}. > As the mvn script understands Cygwin, it would be helpful to add the > passthrough flag automatically. (Of course, there may need to be some smarts > about batch and logging modes, and checking if stdout is a console vs > pipeline.) > Apologies: I'm unsure how to issue a PR for the maven repo. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
