I think you've found a "bug" or unexpected feature, but it's not in git,
but in your pager.

Try:

    PAGER=cat git log --pretty=format:'%h%Cred%+d test'

I'm assuming you're using "less" and are about to read about its
behavior of resetting colors that are still in effect when it hits a
newline.

I hope that helps.
