If you run "git branch" at this point, you'll see that git has
temporarily moved you to a new branch named "bisect". This branch
points to a commit (with commit id 65934...) that is reachable from
-v2.6.19 but not from v2.6.18. Compile and test it, and see whether
+"master" but not from v2.6.18. Compile and test it, and see whether
it crashes. Assume it does crash. Then:

fundamentally different ways to fix the problem:
1. You can create a new commit that undoes whatever was done

mistake has already been made public.
2. You can go back and modify the old commit. You should
