Command line is formatting lines wrong

Question

Recently I decided to install git-up (https://github.com/msiemens/PyGitUp)

However the program seems to have some weird behaviour when it comes to displaying text. It gives nearly every character a prefix: <--[0m or <--1m. I have seen this kind of behaviour in other bash programs as well.

This is the example I am talking about.

Somewhere I read this has something to do with color formatting, however I cannot find a way to fix this.

you can see [here](http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/10065/111273) how to check if your terminal supports color printing — Yuri G., Jun 03 '15 at 22:25

As mention here and in this blog post, you can try and install adoxa/ansicon.

Install it with: ansicon -i

It should allow Windows console to interpret correct ANSI colors.
