No way to force color output in salt command

While salt color output works awesome when I have a PTY, it does not work when I run it without a PTY, because of this:

https://github.com/saltstack/salt/blob/develop/salt/utils/__init__.py#L138

There should be a force option right there, preferably settable via command-line, that allows me to wire my git push post-receive hook into showing me nice colors.

Thanks!
