Does it also work to drive git bisect from a subdirectory and pass a 
file name (or pathspec) that is relative to that subdirectory rather 
than relative to the root of the worktree? Can `git bisect good` or `git 
bisect bad` of later bisection steps be invoked from different 
subdirectories or the root?
