Next roll-up will contain this as patch 2:
-               eval="$eval bisect_write '$state' '$rev' 'nolog'; "
+               eval="$eval ${eval:+&&} bisect_write '$state' '$rev' 'nolog' "

There is a no-checkout-v10 tag on github with the current iteration (https://github.com/jonseymour/git/commits/no-checkout-v10). This also contains the v8a patch.

I'll repost on request or once others have had the chance to give feedback.
