  As of CiviCRM v5.12.1 the menubar color is a configurable setting.
  
  On your main site you can change the color via the UI by visiting **Administer -> Customize Data & Screens -> Display Preferences**.

  Since this preference is stored in a system setting, you can override it on your various dev/staging sites by adding a line like this to `civicrm.settings.php`:
  
  ```
  $civicrm_setting['CiviCRM Preferences']['menubar_color'] = '#800000';
  
  ```
