that was built by downloading the dmg out of our website, mounting
them and copying LibreOffice.app in the git repo.

over time I will add new release... but with some delay for the most
current release to keep thinks 'linear'
iow I will only add the 4-2 series once 4.1 is out of service and no
new release is expected for it

that git repo can be downloaded from

http://dev-downloads.libreoffice.org/MacOS_Bibibsect/Bibisect_MacOSX10.6%2b_release_lo-3.3.0_to_lo-4.1.tar.bz2

I will make it available as annongit clone later.. but due to the size
it is prolly best to do a http download initially anyway.

Feedback welcomed.

=====

I am also working (not finished yet) on a bibisec repo to cover master
from the tag where we branched the 4-1 branches to the point where we
branched 4-2
iow the development period of 4.2 on master...and then add the commit
on libreoffice-4-2 branches....

then I will repeat the process for 4-3 dev... etc...
hopefully by then I wil have the scripting in place to do that using
the existing tinderbox rather than running for 3 weeks 24/7 on one
machine to catch-up :-)

FYI the bibisect_release has 54 version and he .git is 1.6 GB
the bibisect_42_dev repo has 2160 version so far... expected to be
~2500 by the time it is caugh-up. I'm not certain what the size will
be... but it looks like it could be 5-6GB

Note: the version are build as 'release'.. and the git repo contain
the resulting LibreOffice.app

I'm hoping to have a first version of that repo with everything up to
the libreoffice-4-2 branch point, uploaded by next week...

Note: that bibisect-43-dev repo will look like

for each commit a first source sha:xxxxxxx the one that show-up in the
short-log is the sha of core that was built for this version
the following source sha:xxxx in the commit message list all the
source sha that are in this version and where not in the previous
version stored in the bibisect repo.
This can be useful when one know a source sha that is good/bad to
quickly find the binary version associated to frame/narrow the
bibisection.

so to find the binary version of a given source sha:
git log --grep=<source sha>

one notable exception: the very first commit of the repo contains:

    tag:BEGIN_BIBISECT

tag BEGIN_BIBISECT here is to avoid listing all the source commit from
the beginning of time until there :-)
It can be used in script to detect the first commit by only looking at
the commit messages
