Hi,
git diff on alpine seems to pass its output through less, but the color
escape codes seem to get modified/trashed in the process. I know I can use
git diff --no-color, which works fine, but I'd like to fix or at least
understand why my terminal isn't getting proper escape codes for colors and
instead I get a bunch of '[[31m", for instance.
Ideas appreciated,

I use the following in my `~/.profile`
`export LESS="--RAW-CONTROL-CHARS"`

Hmm,
less on my system has no such option:
$ less
less: missing filename
BusyBox v1.28.4 (2018-12-31 18:05:13 UTC) multi-call binary.
Usage: less [-EIMmNSh~] [FILE]...
View FILE (or stdin) one screenful at a time
-E Quit once the end of a file is reached
-I Ignore case in all searches
-M,-m Display status line with line numbers
and percentage through the file
-N Prefix line number to each line
-S Truncate long lines
-~ Suppress ~s displayed past EOF

coreutils related packages
