git-bisect: After `git bisect` pinpoints the faulty commit, end the bisect session and return to the previous branch.
$ git bisect reset
try on your machine

The git bisect reset command is used to terminate a git bisect session and reset the repository to its original state before the bisect process began.

In Git, the git bisect command is used to perform a binary search through the commit history to find the specific commit that introduced a bug or caused a certain issue. The process involves marking commits as "good" or "bad" until the problematic commit is identified.

Once the git bisect process is completed and you have found the problematic commit, you can use git bisect reset to reset the repository to its original state. This command discards the changes made during the bisect process, clears any saved state or marks, and returns the repository to the state it was in before the bisect operation started.

By using git bisect reset, you are essentially undoing the changes made during the bisect process and reverting the repository back to the original state.
