Hi

I am currently bisecting emacs master in order to find the commit that
causes BUG 58412: 29.0.50

Question, is it necessary to run 

 make clean 

For each new commit in the bisection session?

Regards

Uwe Brauer

Wouldn't it be highly dependent on the kind of bug you are trying to
find?  I typically start with just 'make', then resort to a full 'git
clean -xdff' if that doesn't work.  There are possible steps in between.
