Mainly because error() was meant to be used as "return error("blabla");", 
and we tried to discern different failures by different return values.

But yeah, I think it would be acceptable to use error() instead of 
fprintf() even then.

BTW IMHO we will probably never libify git; too many too complicated cases 
exist already.
