What issue #486?  Where?  The Git project doesn't use issues.

Why should 'git bisect' be able to run from inside any subdirectory
(of the working tree, I presume)?

In particular, what happens, if someone starts 'git bisect' from
within 'subdir/', and 'git bisect' then checks out an old commit,
where said 'subdir/' didn't exist?  What happens, if the user runs
'git bisect run ./script' from within 'subdir/', and that 'subdir/'
doesn't exist in that old commit?  What happens, if 'subdir' does
exists in that old commit, but it's a file, not a directory?  What
happens, if all this is on Windows?

Please don't indent the commit message and use punctuation to make it
more readable.
