Subject: Misbehaving git bisect bad HEAD
Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2014 15:04:09 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87y4pzbx2e.fsf@igel.home> (raw)
Running "git bisect bad" should be the same as "git bisect bad HEAD",
shouldn't it?
When replaying this bisect log on the Linux kernel tree:

Running "git bisect bad" gives this:
$ git bisect bad
Bisecting: 6 revisions left to test after this (roughly 3 steps)
[ec2aef5a8d3c14272f7a2d29b34f1f8e71f2be5b] power/perf/hv-24x7: Use kmem_cache_free() instead of kfree
Running "git bisect bad HEAD" instead gives this:
$ git bisect bad HEAD
Bisecting: a merge base must be tested

This is git 2.2.1.
