After looking a bit at the code, I think that for now existing
predefined terms ("bad", "good", "new" and "old") as well as some
other terms that look like bisect subcommands like "skip", "start" and
"terms" should be disallowed as arguments to "git bisect terms", and
this should be stated in the commit message and in the documentation
as well as checked and tested.

For example a user might want to search for a fix by using "git bisect
terms good bad" (which should swap "good" and "bad"), but we should
not at least for now allow that.

Maybe you could move appending to the log into write_terms() though
you might need to pass an additional argument to enable or disable
logging.
