And for people using mutt, here's a draft of some diff/commit mail
colorizing.  It has some issues, namely that it isn't context-aware so will
tend to color all lines that start with + or -, but I figured I'd dump it
here vs. sitting on it until it's perfect.  If you put all your commit
mails in a separate mailbox you probably won't mind anyway.

Some of these colors probably only look decent on with the hacked color
definitions I use locally, but they're easy to change to whatever you want.

color body cyan        default       "^[> ]*diff .+"
color body magenta     default       "^[> ]*@@ .+"
color body magenta     default       "^[> ]*Binary files .+ differ"
color body green       default       "^[> ]*\\+.*"
color body red         default       "^[> ]*-.*"

color body white       default       "^[> ]*GIT changes to .* by"
color body blue        default       "[0-9]+ files? changed"
color body green       default       "[0-9]+ insertions?\\(\\+\\)"
color body red         default       "[0-9]+ deletions?\\(-\\)"
color body white       default       "^[> ]*New commits:"
color body blue        default       "(cherry picked from )?commit 
[0-9a-f]{40}"
color body cyan        default       "^[> ]*Author: [^<]+[^ <]"
