But do you not need to do "2,bad|2,good|2,dunno" > in that case? Or even better: "2,*"? Perhaps it would be an improvement at least in speed for "2,good" or "2,dunno". I wanted to keep exactly the same processing as there was before, in case something like "git bisect good v1.5.3.3..v1.5.3.4" was supported. But it seems it doesn't work. I don't know if it's a bug or a feature. Christian.
