跳格根本不显示颜色

Question

I'm trying to work with tig to see git database. But it doesn't display colors at all. If I try to set a color in ~/.tigrc it just ignores it. I added a binding and it works, so tig do see my tigrc file.

Can any one help me please?

In general, command line applications rely on the value of your $TERM environment variable to determine whether your system supports coloured output. A setting of vt100 like you have does not indicate colour support.

There are many possible settings for this variable, though a common "base" setting that supports 16 colours is xterm . The way to change this setting will depend on your shell, but in Bash you can try this:

# Set the new value for the current session
export TERM=xterm

# Now test tig...

# If successful, add to your .bashrc for future sessions
echo export TERM=xterm >> ~/.bashrc

This section from the GNU gettext manpage that discusses some other possible settings for the $TERM variable.
