Coca-Cola uses red. So red is refreshing and hip (if you believe the 
commercials).

Apples are red. Red is healthy.

Firefox is red on blue. I like Firefox.

Green is the color of nature but also of poison.

Which is to say, git's wellfare will surely not depend on the color of 
its logo. Otherwise the Coca-Cola company would have used a different color.
