You can try "git bisect skip", but in general the better choice is to just 
do

	git bisect visualize

to open up gitk with the current set of possible targets, and then just 
pick a likely point by hand, and do

	git reset --hard <sha1-of-the-thing-you-picked>

and try that one instead. There's some talk about this in "man git-bisect"
but maybe it's not very good.
