Thank you very much for your feedback.

I’ve just re-rolled the patch to only move the cover letter to the commit 
message in case the patch is eventually accepted.

I proposed this patch because I thought that people picky about colors would 
have customized them anyway and people less picky about colors would leave the 
default and would find smarter to have the same color scheme for different tools 
doing the same thing (`git grep` and `GNU grep`).
I choose to align `git grep` on `GNU grep` because the latter has a more 
colorful scheme and elements already colored in both schemes are already 
sharing the same color.

I however understand your points and I would understand if the patch is 
dropped if it isn’t worth having to justify a change of default values.
