* Is there any policy regarding use of putchar/puts vs. printf?

If the printed string contains color escapes that should be obeyed, you
can use only fputs, printf, and fprintf. You should not use puts or putchar.

This msysgit-imposed restriction is something even I do not remember
offhand.  Could you please document it somewhere in a file any developer
would get by checking out the 'master' branch of git.git?
