How to Abort Git Bisect

Question

I started my git bisect by specifying good and bad revisions but I don't think they registered. Additionally, as I am attempting to specify git bisect good and bad, I don't think git is doing anything. I would like to abort the entire bisect so that I can re-initiate the operation. git bisect reset seems to be what I am looking for, but I want to double check before potentially messing anything up.

Answer 1

git bisect reset is the correct command. From the documentation :

After a bisect session, to clean up the bisection state and return to the original HEAD, issue the following command:

 $ git bisect reset 

By default, this will return your tree to the commit that was checked out before git bisect start . (A new git bisect start will also do that, as it cleans up the old bisection state.)
