njames93 added a comment.

Would it be wise to use `os.isatty(sys.stdout.fileno())` as the value if left unspecified.
As we capture stdout from clang-tidy, clang-tidy assumes we aren't connected to a terminal and thus disables colours, unless explicitly enabled.
Therefore if our python script is known to be running from a terminal and we haven't specified to use colours. We should enable `--use-color`.

Based off this, I think the argument should be a carbon copy of the `--use-color` option from clang-tidy.
