Description

Once all builds have been exhausted, there should be some mechanism for transgression to begin performing a git bisect on commit histories between two builds. This requires that we have the commits from which builds were made, as well as the ability to compile code (a build command).

Research direction

Start by locating the flow that runs after all builds have been exhausted, then trace how builds are associated with commits and how code is compiled. Define the entry point for bisecting between two builds and verify that it can use the required commits and build command to narrow the regression.
