[PATCH 10/16] bisect: introduce distance_direction()

From
Stephan Beyer <s-beyer@gmx.net>
Date
Feb 26, 2016, 02:04 UTC
Message-ID
<1456452282-10325-11-git-send-email-s-beyer@gmx.net>
In-Reply-To
<1456452282-10325-1-git-send-email-s-beyer@gmx.net>

We introduce the concept of rising and falling distances (in addition to a halfway distance). This will be useful in subsequent commits.
