Subject: [PATCH 0/2] minute "git bisect" doc updates
Date: Wed,  7 Feb 2024 13:44:34 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240207214436.538586-1-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <24a42fa6-7bc4-4a3b-8bf4-a0ef85dc457a@matthieu-moy.fr>

"git bisect" documentation was a bit sketchy on alternative keywords
"new" and "old", that are used to signal if a command is from the
part of the history that is newer or older than "a significant
event" the bisection is trying to find.  Here are two small patches
that improves the documentation.

I am trying to flush my "stalled topics" queue.  Here is a small and
(hopefully) easy-to-finish one.

The original discussion was from early December 2023 and can be
found at
