Thanks for reporting this strange behavior.

Unfortunately when trying to reproduce, I don't get "f5bba2a7147ef8a6980ff043e93dd038c14bb9bc was both good and bad" like you, but the expected:

Bisecting: 2606 revisions left to test after this (roughly 11 steps)
[b335cf582f4a789b725cc37822d6eed42c8d9e71] add test and fix space

You are using Git 2.30.2 which is one year old. Could you try with a more recent version like 2.35.1?

Best, Christian.
