Hi,
 the following git-bisect log - applied to a recent linux-kernel tree
 produced different end results when I use "git bisect replay"
 and when I just run it as a shell script.

$ git bisect replay /tmp/log 
We are not bisecting.
Bisecting: a merge base must be tested
[2decb2682f80759f631c8332f9a2a34a02150a03] Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net


$ bash /tmp/log
....
Bisecting: 2 revisions left to test after this (roughly 1 step)
[57127645d79d2e83e801f141f7d03f64accf28aa] s390/zcrypt: Introduce new SHA-512 based Pseudo Random Generator.

Is "git bisect replay" doing the wrong thing, or am I confused?

I tested on 2.5.0, and the current HEAD.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
