Which somewhat defeats the point of introducing "old" and "new", though.
The "terms" support is for people who feel that good/bad would be too confusing
for the particular bisect session (e.g. because they are hunting for a fix).

The same comment for the token after --name-, but allowing the terms to be set
at "start" could be a type-saver.  With need for added "--name-"
prefix (worse, twice),
I am not sure if it would be seen as a useful type-saver, though.

Thanks.
