The end result may be the same, as the later part of this function that uses sb with len==0 ends up showing the same "bisecting" (or "rebasing") without any other information, but the logic to reach that outcome looks wrong.

Such a refactoring may look larger than necessary, but on the other hand, I do not see this feature very useful if it can over time drift away from what we will see in "git status", so...
