Description
For some reason my XCode doesn't interpret the color codes correctly. Because of this the log lines become cluttered with garbage.
It looks like this:
`[0m [2m2019-03-24 19:33:34.915 ( 0.002s) [main thread ] cli.cpp:27 INFO| [0mThis is a test [0m`
Copy + pasting a line from XCode terminal looks like this:
`[0m[2m2019-03-24 19:33:34.915 ( 0.002s) [main thread ] cli.cpp:27 INFO| [0mThis is a test[0m`
The OS X Terminal app and iTerm do interpret the color code well.
Any idea of what might be going on?

Research direction
The report identifies cli.cpp:27 and compares XCode's terminal with OS X Terminal and iTerm. First reproduce the logged output in each terminal and inspect how the color escape sequences are emitted around that location. Done means XCode displays the log without raw escape-code garbage, or the issue is documented as an XCode terminal limitation.
