git bisect basically refuses to work with merge commits, so using those ruin bisectability.
As well as linear log, cherry-pick and scores of other tools which do not have intelligent merges handling.
- Karellen 4y ago> git bisect basically refuses to work with merge commits, so using those ruin bisectability. I find that quite surprising, given how I see `git bisect` referenced by the Linux community as useful for tracking down the commit that introduced a problem, and Linus uses merge commits (including `octopus merges`) very heavily.
