Ok. I misunderstood it, sorry.

I don't have experience with Clippy, but my git-what.sh was just
showing the help as shown before (well, actually not for bisect but is
easy to fix).

It is not a hands-on tutorial, it is more of "in which state (merging,
bisecting,...) is my working tree, if it is in the middle of a complex
process (bisect, merge, rebase,...) tell me what was the help
message". It is not that different from the output of "git status",
but for states.
