This message is still lacking the explanation I asked for, namely for the lines:

	@@ -329,6 +334,11 @@ static struct commit_list *do_find_bisection(struct commit_list *list,

I would have preferred to reuse the already existing commits generated in the `setup` phase rather than generating yet another batch, and to not introduce an inconsistent way to present a commit graph (compare your diagram with the one in https://github.com/git/git/blob/v2.18.0/t/t6002-rev-list-bisect.sh#L64-L90 i.e. *in the same file*), and I mentioned this at least twice before, but maybe it got lost (and I could imagine that Christian's insistence on pushing the patch through with as little changes as he can get away with does not help), but at least now the added tests look slightly more understandable than before (despite funny indentation and too-long lines), so I'll stop imitating a broken record at this point.

Ciao, Johannes
