Hi,

git rev-list segfaults when crossing a merge commit when given --bisect-vars and --first-parent. This is on branches master, next, and pu from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git right now.

Reproduce it using git's git repository like this:

git rev-list --bisect-vars --first-parent \
   80bfd76af7ac817d4a4b9b7d54485..67faaaba8338cf59c212ce5239eeb

Without either --first-parent or --bisect-vars it works.

Thank you for your work on git. When we introduced CVS in our development some ten years ago, after a few weeks we could not imagine how we could have got any work done without it. When we started using git, we found this former step was tiny compared to the increase in productivity we experienced switching from CVS to git.

Regards Stephan
