Often git trees are not bisectable. But they should be. Your best bet is to do a git-bisect on git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi-misc-2.6.git http://www.kernel.org/doc/local/git-quick.html - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
