This patch makes "git bisect" checkout revisions to be tested on
a detached HEAD. This simplifies the code a bit.
Yay!!
One potential worry/downside is "bisect visualize". Because <bisect>
branch was used for bisection, the _current_ commit has always been
indicated with a label. HEAD would not get any special label in gitk,
would it?
Hrm. This seems like a potential issue to me as I occasionally
do want to view where it is and possibly adjust it up or down a
few commits depending on context.
Perhaps a "git bisect addfoo" sort of command is needed? The goal
would be to "add some form of {branch,label,tag}" so it could be named,
seen and possibly moved.
