          <para>
          Colors to use in output (when color is enabled). The format for
          COLOR_SCHEME is
          '&lt;debug&gt;:&lt;info&gt;:&lt;warning&gt;:&lt;error&gt;'.
          Numerical values and color names are accepted, empty fields imply
          the default color. For example,
          <option>--git-color-scheme=</option><literal>'cyan:34::'</literal> would
          show debug messages in cyan, info messages in blue and other messages
          in default (i.e. warning and error messages in red).
