Git currently doesn't emit combined escapes (e.g. \e[0;31m to reset and then turn on red text), but I can imagine it being enhanced to do this in the future. I would recommend handling it here if you can.

In fact that can be configured even now:
 % git config color.diff.whitespace "bold white bold cyan"
 % git diff --color | cat.exe --show-all
 ^[[1;37;46m+^[[m$
so thanks for the warning.
