This should have been detected as "does not affect binary", but there
is something I don't understand/missing:
This is bisected to 2de50e9674fc4ca3c6174b04477f69eb26b4ee31
and it has this parent:
$ git log -n 1 --format="%P" 2de50e9674fc4ca3c6174b04477f69eb26b4ee31
388f7b1d6e8ca06762e2454d28d6c3c55ad0fe95
But the parent was never tested during bisection... how is this possible?
