I’m investigating creating a tool to enable us to bisect commits quickly. One thing is that some commits we have are auto-generated and don’t need to make builds so we can’t easily test those. My thinking had been to have the tooling skip those commits with git bisect skip
. I had read, for instance, that bisect uses a pseudo random number generator to determine which commit to try after skipping a commit. I’d also seen that it seems to fail if a large percentage of your commits fail to build as per this site. Any ideas why?
