### Start a git bisection, and prune the branches that are the result of

### Commentary:

## Marking the last commits of external tree merges as "good" ensures
## that all the commits between the external tree root and the merge
## (excluding the merge-commit itself) are regarded as "good", so "git
## bisect" will never descend into these branches, which only have the
## files of the external tree, and in which Emacs can therefore not be
## built.  The last commit is the parent of the merge commit in the
## external tree, that is, the parent of the merge commit that is not
## on master.
