Description

I have always had GREP_OPTIONS set to –color=always.

Recently, on OS X, this bit me here:

• https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/069e383f57e3106bbe2e6ddcebeae77da1ea53e1/conf/cassandra-env.sh#L132

Because GREP_OPTIONS is also deprecated, it's suggested you use the following format instead:

alias grep="grep --color=always"

We have two paths forward:

• unset GREP_OPTIONS
• Force the affected line to be grep --color=never
