Table format broken on Windows

[daniel-liuzzi]

At the expense of being the odd one out around here on Windows, I installed git-recent on my system and already love it. It works perfectly overall, except for one minor thing. column messes up the table layout when there are control chars in any except the last column. For example:

If I go and temporarily remove the coloring from the refname like so:

  format="\
- %(HEAD) %(color:yellow)%(refname:short)%(color:reset)|\
+ %(HEAD) %(refname:short)|\
  %(color:bold red)%(objectname:short) %(color:bold green)(%(committerdate:relative)) %(color:blue)%(authorname) %(color:reset)%(color:yellow)%(upstream:track)%0a\
-   %(color:black) %(color:reset)|%(contents:subject)%0a\
+    |%(contents:subject)%0a\
    |"

Then columns do line up properly and match the screenshot on the README:

If I have to guess, this seems to be more of a column problem than a git recent problem, but I though I bring it up in case I'm missing something. If anyone can point me in the right direction I can make a PR attempt.

how about moving yellow up a line and reset to right before the bold/red?
Curious if that gets us consitent rendering across all the column's

like this maybe?

format="\%(color:yellow)
%(HEAD) %(refname:short)|\
%(color:reset)%(color:bold red)%(objectname:short) %(color:bold green)(%(committerdate:relative)) %(color:blue)%(authorname) %(color:reset)%(color:yellow)%(upstream:track)%0a\
  %(color:black) %(color:reset)|%(contents:subject)%0a\
  |"

Unfortunately it didn't work 😕 It also lost the yellow coloring and rendered a \ above the refname:

I've been playing with this some more and got an idea. Give me a few minutes and I'll sent a PR.
