Coloured output is not working about bass HOT 4 CLOSED

You don't need bass to run git status. May I ask why you need to do this?

It might not be easy to fix, because here git will detect whether the output is a terminal and then output colored or plain text. That's why if you run git status | tee /tmp/x you also won't see colored output.

Found this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3515208/can-colorized-output-be-captured-via-shell-redirect and it seemed to work for me:

$ bass script -q /dev/null git status

git status is just a simplified example that came to my mind. Thank you for explaining, now it makes sense and it's clear where to look.
