Forget about bisect. This is a different use case where I need the
feature I am talking about: checkout an old version in B and
automatically having A and C switch to a compatible version (the cause
can be because of a bisect or just because I want to try an old
feature not yet integrated into master or whatever the reason I want
to be on this old version).
