Well, one can write an one-line shell alias (or script) instead of reinventing the wheel by rewriting the whole thing anew in Go. (Which is certainly good as learning experience for Go, but the end result is easier to achieve with the shell)

coloring is already supported by grep, .hg/.gitignore support is just a few lines
Just do it then.
