In this more general usage, you provide `git bisect` with a "new"

commit has the property. If it does, mark the commit as "new";
otherwise, mark it as "old". When the bisection is done, `git bisect`
`view` may also be used as a synonym for `visualize`.

Instead of choosing a nearby commit by yourself, you can ask Git to do
it for you by issuing the command:

as the highest sensible value to use for this purpose, because 126 and 127
are used by POSIX shells to signal specific error status (127 is for
