What version of bat are you using?
bat 0.15.1
Describe the bug you encountered:
The colorscheme appears different depending on if I'm connected via ssh (even localhost)
A subtle difference:
A more obvious difference when using delta with the TwoDark colorscheme:
I think my colors are set appropriately, since these test seem to work fine over ssh
Describe what you expected to happen?
The colorscheme matches.
How did you install bat?
apt-get, homebrew, GitHub release, etc.

This is most likely related to the COLORTERM environment variable which is probably not set on the remote machine? In this case, bat will fall back to 8bit colors instead of 24bit colors. See https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#troubleshooting
