Binary searching your commit history and using version control software to automate the process just seems so...obvious? I get that author learned a new-to-him technique and is excited to share with the world. But to this dev, with a rapidly greying beard, the article has the vibe of "Hey bro! You're not gonna believe this. But I just learned the Pope is catholic." | ||

Seriously. Binary search is one of the first things you learn in algorithms, and in a well-managed branch the commit tree is already a sorted straight line, so it's just obvious as hell, whether or not you use your VCS to run the bisect or you do it by hand yourself. "Hey guys, check it out! Water is wet!" | ||
