I've used hyperfine [1] when doing specific performance tests
in the past. You can build Git before and after and have hyperfine
run the two modes and compare them:

	hyperfine --warmup=3 \
		-n 'old' "~/git-old/bin-wrappers/git -C $repo merge-base $A $B" \
		-n 'new' "~/git-new/bin-wrappers/git -C $repo merge-base $A $B"

Good luck!
