winansi.c is all about overriding MSVCRT's console handling. If we are
connected to a console, then by the time isatty() is called (from
outside the emulation layer), all handling of file descriptors 1 and 2
is already outside MSVCRT's control. In particular, we have determined
unambiguously whether a terminal is connected (see is_console()). I
suggest to have the implementation below (on top of the patch I'm
responding to).

What do you think?

I thought a bit more about this approach, and I retract it. I think it does not work when Git is connected to an MSYS TTY, i.e., when the "console" is in reality the pipe that is detected in detect_msys_tty().

At the same time I wonder how your original winansi_isatty() could have worked: In this case, MSVCRT's isatty() would return 1 (because detect_msys_tty() has set things up that this happens), but then winansi_isatty() checks whether the handle underlying fd 0, 1 or 2 is a real Windows console. But it is not: it is a pipe. Am I missing something?
