A project for demonstrating and practicing git bisect. Code comes from Fowlers Refactoring book.
- Start the bisect process
git bisect start
- Declare the current commit (or known bad commit if you are not on it)
git bisect bad
- Declare the first known good commit (this is the initial commit in this example, you can also use tags I believe)
git bisect good 7ace8bed2d59a8189e939a21c5651ec52293ecf7
- The process begins and you enter
git bisect goodfor good commits andgit bisect badfor bad commits, after running your code and determining the state of the current revision.
Repeat step 4 until git declares the origin of the bad code.
View all commits that have been processed and their good/bad status
git bisect log
- To end the bisect process:
git bisect reset
