That was my initial thought [*1*] when the problem with "dash

Junio proposed [*2*] documenting the changes to address it as a separate
patch, and I think it makes sense and it is valuable to capture the
situation this way in the history.
We normally avoid merging commits that are known to break our ci. We can
add a comment about the dash problem to the commit message when this
fixup is squashed. Also the problem is now documented in
Documentation/CodingGuidelines which is more likely to be read by other
contributors.
Regarding the bisectability, I don't understand what stops from being
bisectable. Except in a scenario with a shell like "dash 0.5.10.2-6"
there won't be any problem.
But we know that shell is in use in a popular Linux distribution so it
is a problem for those users.

And in one with it, which should be
uncommon, the situation is well explained.
So, I dunno.
