gitk shows an error "Can't parse git log output: {\x1b[33commit..." at
startup and quits.
Obviously it's because my git-log outputs in color mode. But the same
happens (and git-log still outputs in colors) after I set color.pager=false.
What am I missing?
Thanks.

This will quickly turn into an FAQ.
Please see:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/57204
for details and a possible future plans. Making "diff.color =
true" to always color was a mistake, and if you have such a
configuration, it would break any script that reads from "git
log". In the meantime, do not do "diff.color = true" (or
"color.diff = true") in your configuration; say "auto" instead
of "true", and/or apply this patch.

Indeed. I went and added it to the Wiki/FAQ.
Also I noticed that git-log was missing the descriptions for '--color'
and '--no-color'.
