[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
    diff: disable colorization for TERM=dumb

    * src/diff.c (main): With --color or --color=auto, when TERM is
    "dumb", disable colorization.  Suggested by Daniel Colascione.
    * NEWS (Bug fixes): Mention it.
    * tests/colors: Add a test that would fail without this change,
    yet passes with it.
