Subject: [TOY PATCH] git bisect: introduce 'fixed' and 'unfixed'
Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2008 15:17:18 +0100 (BST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.1.00.0806241515460.9925@racer> (raw)


When you look for a fix instead of a regression, it can be quite hard
to twist your brain into choosing the correct bisect command between
'git bisect bad' and 'git bisect good'.

So introduce the commands 'git bisect fixed' and 'git bisect unfixed'.

	When Randal talked about this on IRC, I laughed.  But I just had 
	the case where it took me _three_ attempts at a bisection, only
	to give up and write this patchlet.

	May it help someone else, too.
