Holding stuff off from being merged doesn't work.  If you have the
following commit structure:

A---...-----M1-B-C-M2
+---A1-B1-C1'     /
+-A2-B2-C2-------'

Now, lets say A2 depends on C1.  Merely delaying the stuff so that M2
happens after M1 is insufficient to ensure git state doesn't break.
When bisecting, its entirely possible that the bisect algorithm may
chose B2 as a potential test candidate.  At that point you end up with
A2, but without C1.

The only way to solve this is to have A2 following on from C1 - which
of course requires A1..C1 to be declared stable and either pulled into
your local tree or for A2..C2 to be submitted to the same tree which
A1..C1 are already in.
