hmmm... that's a merge commit. Any chance you could mark an individual
commit bad, to narrow things down a bit more? Run "git help bisect" and
check out helpful sections "Avoiding testing a commit" and "Bisect skip".
What do I want to skip or avoid testing though? Does bisect not know how
to deal with merges?
Here is the log, in case that helps:
4cc4d24efce4672f9b0e7fa27963770ae602998f is the first bad commit
