F18: Why are there no Gnome-Terminal Colors for GIT?
I just started to learn GIT and i already wondered before why there are so less colors used in gnome-terminal in fedora.
For example in this tutorial, new changes to commit are highlighted with colors, in my terminal it s all one color.

I really love the colors e.g. in Ubunto Terminal or in this tutorial.
So what is the easiest way to get a great color scheme? Should i install another terminal (thats too much or?), start creating own colors, or looking for a "theme". Tried solarized, but this didnt affect GIT Colors.
Can anyone tell me a little bit about terminal colors and how you are customizing your terminal? I m still a beginner and would love to hear what advanced useres recommend to do.
Thanks in advance.
This is not terminal specific issue. Colors can be turned on from git itself.
I also use this
which adds some colors to my prompt and when I am in a git repo, it will tell me the branch name, also in color :)
