Now I just need to convince git-grep to use it.
You need to convince grep. When piping its output to less, it won't colorize unless forced. Always forcing color via GREP_OPTIONS might break certain use-cases, and git-grep doesn't allow to pass options. So for me, a bash alias it is: alias gg='GREP_OPTIONS=--color=always git-grep' You might need to set LESS=-R in addition to that, to stop less from stripping the color codes.
