✨ NAME ✨

git-pkgs-bisect — bestie, this is the one that finds the commit that introduced a dependency-related change 💅

(Also hiiii, welcome to the Git Pkgs Manual 🎀 — this is your page for the bisect command, and we're gonna get through it together, no cap.)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

git-pkgs bisect [flags]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so picture this: it does a binary search through commits with dependency changes to find when a specific change was introduced. Literally the whole point. It works like git bisect but — and this is the iconic part — it only considers commits that modified dependencies, which makes it faster for dependency-related issues. Slay. 🔥

The subcommands, bestie, in order:

  • start — Begin a bisect session
  • good — Mark a commit as good (before the problem)
  • bad — Mark a commit as bad (has the problem)
  • skip — Skip a commit that can't be tested
  • run — Automate bisect with a script
  • reset — End the bisect session
  • log — Show the bisect log
Not me listing all seven of them twice in my head to make sure I didn't skip one 😭 — I didn't. You're welcome. 🫶

💖 OPTIONS 💖

  • -h, --help[=false] — help for bisect. The classic. The moment. 🌈

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

These ones you didn't even ask for, they just come with the family. Main character energy only. ⭐

  • --color="auto" — When to colorize output: auto, always, never
  • --include-submodules[=false] — Include git submodules when scanning for manifests
  • -p, --pager[=false] — Use pager for output
  • -q, --quiet[=false] — Suppress non-essential output
