What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.create a hook on the server side (linux but maybe also works local) which uses colors (for example 'echo "\n$(tput -Tansi setaf 1) Text$(tput -Tansi sgr0)\n"' in a bash script).
2. let the hook execute (I used a post-recive hook)
3. look at the output window of tortoise git.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect Text output in read color, but I see some wired chars. At least Tortoisegit should ignore the unprintable chars and only show the pure text.

[1m executed successfully [m

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Windows 7 Version TortoiseGit 1.7.8.0 and TortoiseGit-2012-04-25-993e5a-32bit with utf-8 support
git version 1.7.8.msysgit.0

Please provide any additional information below.

In mysysgit the Output is colored and everything looks fine.

The Output of Tortoise git looks like:

git.exe push --progress "origin" test:test
