Stephen,

is the linux-next.git tree bisectable? I've noticed some trees are
not. For example wireless-testing.git is bisectable but only between
master-$(date) tags.

Within any one day, the tree is bisectable, but not really between one
day and another.  The tree is rebuilt starting from Linus' tree each day.

The individual trees that are being submitted to be pulled into linux-next
*should* be bisectable though.  This is because only stuff is meant to be
shown to linux-next for which the question
   "Cross-tree integration testing ignored for a moment,
    if Linus had a merge window open today, would I ask him to pull this
    tree right away?"
would be answered with a firm Yes.
