Re: [PATCH 2/6] bisect: fix "--" detection when a term name is "--"

> `bisect_start()` walks its arguments twice. The second loop actually
> parses the options, and it knows that `--term-good`, `--term-old`,
> `--term-bad` and `--term-new` take their value as a separate argument,
> so it skips that value.
>
> The first loop, which only looks for the "--" separating revisions from
> paths, doesn't know about these options. So when such an option is given
> "--" as its value, that "--" is mistaken for the separator and
> `has_double_dash` is wrongly set.
