Commits: Insufficient color contrast for the standard text

Issue Summary

The color contrast for some of the text on the page does not meet the minimum color contrast ratio i.e. 4.5:1.

Steps to Reproduce

2. Navigate to the mentioned instance.

1. Use the CCA testing tool to check the color contrast.

1. Observe that the color contrast between the foreground text and the background is insufficient.

Actual Results

The text "Pull request #3...." on the Commits page in the main content area, fails minimum color contrast requirements with its background color i.e. 4.5:1.
FG: #C9CED6
BG: #FFFFFF
Contrast ratio: 3.3:1

The text "87c57b9d55f" on the Commits page in the main content area, fails minimum color contrast requirements with its background color i.e. 4.5:1.
FG: #AAC1EC
BG: #FFFFFF
Contrast ratio: 3.3:1

As a result, low-vision users and color-blind users will find it difficult to read standard text elements that have insufficient contrast.

Expected Results

On all pages, ensure that each foreground/background color combination presents a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 for standard text.

A color contrast analyzer can be downloaded from Color Contrast Checker - TPGi

Workaround

Currently, there is no known workaround for this behaviour. A workaround will be added here when available
