I don't see what is un-pleasant, if we start a bisect what we expect is to find the commit introducing the issue, bisect is able to do it even on large tree with a lot of merges. Moreover, the probability the issue will be searched in a specific section within its own subtree is high which also means locally it will be linear, is not it equivalent to the actual situation? > Adrien mentioned some drawbacks with the rebase method. > Ferruh mentioned some drawbacks and some advantages of rebase. > Stephen mentioned another advantage of rebase. > Such decisions are really difficult. > One thing is sure: there will be always someone unhappy, > no matter the decision :) > > When we want to take such decision or re-consider it, > we ask the techboard to vote... -- Nélio Laranjeiro 6WIND
