If the bisection pinpoints a merge, it _usually_ means that you mis-labeled an
earlier commit (although it is possible that the merge itself is actually the
culprit).  Unless you made a typo, all your 'bad' labels are likely correct.

So look at the output of 'git bisect log', and make a guess at which 'good'
commit might be mis-labeled (choose an older commit over a newer one if you're
unsure which to try first).  Check out that commit, and try again.  If it turns
out to be bad, you'll need to issue a 'git bisect bad' and then remove one or
more 'good' labels, see the git-bisect man page for details.
