[Libreoffice-qa] daily bibisect

I am for the first time trying to use a "daily" bibisect.  For the
terminally curious, this is in aid of fdo#64686 "Bug in Contour
Editor" <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64686>.
To this end I downloaded and unpacked
http://people.canonical.com/~j-lallement/libreoffice/binrepo/bibisect-4.0.tar.lzma
(created 2013-05-08) and in the resulting binrepo/ I did 
`git checkout latest`.  Questions and difficulties arising ...

(*) The tar file has a sibling bibisect-4.0.tar.lzma.zsync.  Am I
    supposed to use this for something?

(*) binrepo/ lacks program soffice, and in particular it lacks
    opt/program/soffice.  How am I supposed to run the program?
    (There does exist opt/program/soffice.bin, but not ooenv which I
    need to `source` first.)

(*) `git log` shows 74 commits, the latest from February 2013.  I
    expected to see later commits.

Guidance welcome.

Thanks,
Terry.
