I think there is a misunderstanding here. “svn update -r REV” is just “git checkout HASH”. By bisection, I understand “git bisect”, which is a way to automate finding a faulty commit. You don’t need to use that if you find it’s too complicated. Actually, "git bisect" is just some scripting on the top of "git checkout", I think.
I see what you meant! Sorry, it’s late here… You can bisect the svn rev number because they are increasing integers!
