Fresh objects

When you want to figure out which object are recently created the fresh ones are colored green. It only works with get subcommand.

You can customize threshold level by using environment variable KUBECOLOR_OBJ_FRESH or ~/.kube/color.yaml config field objFreshThreshold with value format time.Duration.

Terminal window
export KUBECOLOR_OBJ_FRESH="10h"
