Or just inlining the commands that you actually want to run inside of
the if statement above:

    if test "$HASH2" = "$(git rev-parse HEAD)
    then
      git bisect good &&
      test_expect_code 2 git bisect skip >my_bisect_log.txt
    else
      git bisect skip &&
      test_expect_code 2 git bisect good >my_bisect_log.txt
    fi && #...

Here (and in the previous patch) it might be helpful to add a short note
in these conditionals, maybe along the lines of:

    # HASH2 and HASH3 are equivalent choices, but we only want to mark
    # HASH2 as "good". Handle either ordering:

Same note on the brevity of the subject line applies here, too.

Thanks,
