`no-ul`, etc).

+An empty color string produces no color effect at all. This can be used

For git's pre-defined color slots, the attributes are meant to be reset
at the beginning of each item in the colored output. So setting
`color.decorate.branch` to `black` will paint that branch name in a
"`$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>`", by appending the new and old
SHA-1, the date/time and the reason of the update, but
only when the file exists. If this configuration
- variable is set to true, missing "`$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>`"
+ variable is set to `true`, missing "`$GIT_DIR/logs/<ref>`"
file is automatically created for branch heads (i.e. under
- refs/heads/), remote refs (i.e. under refs/remotes/),
- note refs (i.e. under refs/notes/), and the symbolic ref HEAD.

This information can be used to determine what commit
was the tip of a branch "2 days ago".
i.e. it cannot be used to follow multiple files and does not work well
on non-linear history.

log.showRoot::
If true, the initial commit will be shown as a big creation event.
This is equivalent to a diff against an empty tree.
