I found a way to restrict the bisect to november 2011 according to the dates in http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ but the build process fails because a 'debian" directory is missing.
$ git log --after 2011-11-01 --before 2011-11-30 > log_nov2011 $ git bisect start $ git bisect good 45f74482a05df8aa9253ec0b228648cbad3dd7e8 $ git bisect bad a493f1a24a496711d96b91c4dc0a1bd35eb6954b Bisecting: 5283 revisions left to test after this (roughly 12 steps) [37be944a0270402f9cda291a930b0286f6dc92f5] Merge branch 'drm-core-next' of git://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux debian.master/changelog do not exist.
