Opening the discussion to include properties of nondeterministic bugs.
Often these bugs depend on timing, caused by unpredictable thread scheduling, CPU load, disk and networking timing, etc. Git commits can affect app timing and change the likelihood of the bug occurring, but in many cases these changes aren't related to the underlying bug. That's distinct from a regular git bisect to find a deterministic bug.
One cool bayesect application is to identify the commit that most frequently hits the bug, so it's easier to debug. But more broadly, I'm wondering about the underlying philosophy of bisection for nondeterministic bugs, and when I'd use it?
