+
+ Find the color setting for `name` (e.g. `color.diff`) and output
+ "true" or "false". `stdout-is-tty` should be either "true" or
+ "false", and is taken into account when configuration says
+ "auto". If `stdout-is-tty` is missing, then checks the standard

+--get-color name default::

+ Find the color configured for `name` (e.g. `color.diff.new`) and
+ output it as the ANSI color escape sequence to the standard

+ there is no color configured for `name`.
