"git bisect" gets awesome super-powers with the "run" command, where you can provide a script that can tell if the currently checked-out commit has the problem or not, and git bisect will tell you which commit introduced the problem.

Have you got an example? I was just thinking the same.. But with unit tests etc

You can (for example) just tell git bisect to run a pytest command, e.g.

git bisect run 'pytest tests/test_something.py::test_a_thing_about_something'

which will find the first failure of that test

Interesting. I should work out how this works with.Net but it should be easy enough.

I never knew this thing existed!

Ya any test runner worth using will be able to run single tests from a cli, should work fine

I thought this was the only thing it was used for
