git pull is being converted from shell to C as part of the
Google Summer of Code (cc'ing Paul Tan who is the
student, and Johannes Schindelin and me who are the
mentors) so there may be some merge conflicts arising
if we go uncoordinated. See a planned timeline of Paul
at [1]. Depending on your timeline, it might be wise to
hold on a bit and then base your contributions on the C
implementation rather than the bash implementation.

git bisect fix/unfixed sounds interesting though (just
today I tried to find a fix and messed up, again). I am
not aware of the scope you're planning to contribute
to within the git bisect fix/unfixed topic, though I'd like
to share a result[2] of a discussion we had some time
ago, on how git bisect can be improved (nobody did it
yet though).

Thanks,
Stefan
