I didn't know the answer so I asked on #git on freenode: < charon> stefanha: so just tell it that the upstream tip is good < charon> git-bisect assumes you are looking for a single commit C such that any commit that contains C (in its history) is bad, and any other commit is good. if you declare up front that upstream does not contain C, then it won't go looking there of course if that declaration was wrong, it will give wrong results. I think there are two approaches: 1. Side-step this issue by bisecting qemu.git instead of qemu-kvm.git. 2. First test qemu-kvm.git origin/upstream-merge and if there is no performance issue, do: git bisect good origin/upstream-merge. If we're luckily this will avoid going down all the qemu.git merge trees and instead stay focussed on qemu-kvm.git commits.
