If you are running a first-parent-only bisection, by default, each
commit in the "goodness not yet known" region is treated as a single
parent commit for the purpose of bisection.  As do_find_bisection()
avoids the cost of calling stupid-and-expensive count_distance() by
treating such a single-strand-of-pearls specially, wouldn't it be a
BUG() if this funtion is called under first_parent_only mode in the
first place?

Any merge will be checked for interesting-ness of its first parent;
there is either zero or one interesting parent and no other case
under first-parent-only.  OK.

If count-interesting-parents can never be 2 or more, you will never
see weight(p) == -2 (see the switch statement in the previous hunk).

So it your first-parent-only mode allowed this continue not to
trigger, you have a BUG(), I think.

Hence, you do not need to touch count_distance() at all, no?

Unnecessary changes above.

Overlong line.  Fold it after "&&", like this:

				if (!(q->item->object.flags & UNINTERESTING) &&
				    0 <= weight(q)) {

What is this change about?

Ah, if the first parent is uninteresting, we do not want to
continue, but with the original loop, we may go on and check
q->next.  We just want to break out of the loop instead.

I strongly suspect that

			for (q = p->item->parents;
			     q;
			     q = first_parent_only ? NULL : q->next) {

without any change inside the loop is much easier to reason about.
We follow exactly the same logic as the usual case.  We just pretend
that all commits have only one single parent which is the first one.

Thanks.
