5 print this long help message.
6 git bisect start [--term-{new,bad}=<term> --term-{old,good}=<term>]
7 [--no-checkout] [--first-parent] [<bad> [<good>...]] [--] [<pathspec>...]
8 reset bisect state and start bisection.
9 git bisect (bad|new) [<rev>]
10 mark <rev> a known-bad revision/
11 a revision after change in a given property.
12 git bisect (good|old) [<rev>...]
13 mark <rev>... known-good revisions/
14 revisions before change in a given property.
15 git bisect terms [--term-good | --term-bad]
16 show the terms used for old and new commits (default: bad, good)
17 git bisect skip [(<rev>|<range>)...]
18 mark <rev>... untestable revisions.
19 git bisect next
20 find next bisection to test and check it out.
21 git bisect reset [<commit>]
22 finish bisection search and go back to commit.
23 git bisect (visualize|view)
24 show bisect status in gitk.
25 git bisect replay <logfile>
26 replay bisection log.
27 git bisect log
28 show bisect log.
29 git bisect run <cmd>...
30 use <cmd>... to automatically bisect.
