Subject: [PATCH] diff: add support for --color
* doc/diffutils.texi (diff Options): Add documentation for --color.
Copied from coreutils ls --color.
* src/context.c (pr_unidiff_hunk): Add calls to set_color_context.
* src/diff.h (enum colors): New enum to register the current color to use.
(enum colors_style): New enum to record when to use colors.
(colors_style): New variable to memorize the argument value.
(set_color_context): Add function definition.
* src/diff.c (specify_colors_style): New function.
(BINARY_OPTION): Add COLOR_OPTION.
(longopts): Add --color.
(main): Handle --color argument.
(option_help_msgid): Add usage string for --color.
* src/normal.c (print_normal_hunk): Add calls to set_color_context
* src/side.c (print_1sdiff_line): Add calls to set_color_context.
* src/util.c (colors_enabled): New boolean variable.
(check_color_output): New function.
(begin_output): Call check_color_output every time the output file is changed.
(set_color_context): New function. If colors are enabled, print the right
command for the terminal to change the color.
