Difference between color and colorscheme in `.vimrc`

Question

What's the difference between the commands color and colorscheme as used in .vimrc?

Just curious since the README.md for Janus: Vim Distribution uses color, whereas the README for Solarized Colorscheme for Vim uses colorscheme.

Answer 1

:colo[rscheme] {name}
           Load color scheme {name}.  This searches 'runtimepath'
           for the file "colors/{name}.vim.  The first one that
           is found is loaded.

Abbreviation for colorscheme is color
