the bisect start command puts git in the bisect state. It will then expect you to tell it what are the good and bad commits. Git won't actually run anything after bisect start.

It is only after bisect run that git starts searching and running the command you provided it on different commits.

It is also possible to provide the good and bad commits as parameters to the bisect start command.
