The colorize gem is licensed under GPL v2. While I sympathize with the goal of the copyleft licenses, including library code that's licensed under GPL can cause legal headaches. The console-colors gem seems to do the exact same thing. If replacing a GPL dependency with an MIT one isn't preferred, perhaps: 1. Remove the 2 calls to `.green` and 2 calls to `.red`, or 2. Use another gem's capability like [bundler][bundler] 3. Implement the red and green in this codebase [bundler]: https://github.com/bundler/bundler/blob/20f04aa8923c0d0f02e7a74d5e9609d772351668/lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/shell/color.rb

Changed this to use rainbow instead of console-colors (since it's been deleted from GitHub). |

Any chance this is going to be implemented? It's pretty much a show stopper for my application to use this gem with the licensing issue contained within. |
