Sorry for the late answer. I think the content of the BISECT_RUN file should indeed be shown. bisect_state() calls bisect_auto_next() which calls bisect_next() which calls bisect_next_all(), and bisect_next_all() uses printf() to show things like "XXX is the first bad commit" which should be shown when using `git bisect run`. Also when adding an "exit 1 &&" before "git bisect reset" at the end of the `"git bisect run" simple case` test, with 'next' I get: ----------------- $ ./t6030-bisect-porcelain.sh -i -v ... expecting success of 6030.21 '"git bisect run" simple case': write_script test_script.sh <<-\EOF && ! grep Another hello >/dev/null EOF git bisect start && git bisect good $HASH1 && git bisect bad $HASH4 && git bisect run ./test_script.sh >my_bisect_log.txt && grep "$HASH3 is the first bad commit" my_bisect_log.txt && exit 1 && git bisect reset Bisecting: 0 revisions left to test after this (roughly 1 step) [3de952f2416b6084f557ec417709eac740c6818c] Add <3: Another new day for git> into <hello>. 3de952f2416b6084f557ec417709eac740c6818c is the first bad commit FATAL: Unexpected exit with code 1 ----------------- and: ----------------- $ cat trash\ directory.t6030-bisect-porcelain/.git/BISECT_RUN 3de952f2416b6084f557ec417709eac740c6818c is the first bad commit commit 3de952f2416b6084f557ec417709eac740c6818c Author: A U Thor <author@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Apr 7 15:15:13 2005 -0700 Add <3: Another new day for git> into <hello>. hello | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) ----------------- while with 'seen' I get: ----------------- $ ./t6030-bisect-porcelain.sh -i -v ... expecting success of 6030.21 '"git bisect run" simple case': write_script test_script.sh <<-\EOF && ! grep Another hello >/dev/null EOF git bisect start && git bisect good $HASH1 && git bisect bad $HASH4 && git bisect run ./test_script.sh >my_bisect_log.txt && grep "$HASH3 is the first bad commit" my_bisect_log.txt && exit 1 && git bisect reset Bisecting: 0 revisions left to test after this (roughly 1 step) [3de952f2416b6084f557ec417709eac740c6818c] Add <3: Another new day for git> into <hello>. error: bisect run failed:'git bisect--helper --bisect-state good' exited with error code -10 running './test_script.sh'running './test_script.sh'3de952f2416b6084f557ec417709eac740c6818c is the first bad commit FATAL: Unexpected exit with code 1 ----------------- and: ----------------- $ cat trash\ directory.t6030-bisect-porcelain/.git/BISECT_RUN ----------------- So it looks like there might be another issue with what's in 'seen'. > If it does not matter, then the code and tests are good as-is, but > if it does, the fact that you posted this round without noticing any > broken tests means that we have a gap in the test coverage.

Definitely it seems that taking a look at the tests is a good idea. For example, comparing the verbose (with -v) output of t6030 before and after each patch (and before and after this patch series) might help find issues.
