git-bisect(1) next after finding the commit

Hi!

Is there a plumbing command for retrieving the bisected commit after a git-bisect(1) session has successfully found it (and of course before resetting the session)?

I expected `git bisect next` would bring me to it, and then I'd rev-list HEAD -1, but it doesn't bring me to it.

Have a lovely day! Alex
