Hi,
When setting "color.ui = always" in the last few versions (not sure
exactly when this started, but definitely exists in 2.14.1 and
2.14.2), git add -p stops working as expected. Instead of prompting
the user, it skips through the prompts and doesn't allow selecting a
hunk.
Don't know why I had color.ui = always set in my .gitconfig.
git version 2.14.2.666.gea220ee40
Thanks,
Tsvi Mostovicz

This is a known change in behaviour (for more information see the
thread at
https://public-inbox.org/git/86D0A377-8AFD-460D-A90E-6327C6934DFC@gmail.com/).

Can you set color.ui = auto instead? That should give you colored
output on the terminal, while not breaking git add -p.

Hello Tsvi,
This is being discussed just now[0]. Setting the value to auto should
fix it (setting it to always does not make much sense in your config
file).
Kevin.
