Not really. That commit is a pure merge commit, which makes it unlikely that it
behaves any differently from either of its parent commits. So git bisect should
have identified one of its ancestor commits instead. The fact that it
identified a pure merge commit indicates that the result is incorrect, most
likely because at least one commit along the way was incorrectly classified as
good (or bad).
