I didn't see anything in the release notes but does anyone know if Vim 8 adds true colour terminal support?

(I realise that NeoVim has this.)

I haven't searched for vim 8 specifically. But starting with vim v7.4.1770 there was a `set guicolors` option.

Update: Looking at the version8.txt[1] on github, the option seems to be `set termguicolors`

Change seemed to take place at version 7.4.1799[2]

I just tried to get some information on this and all I found was info on how to enable this for NeoVIM.
