Just setup separate tree to perform build. The actual state does not
really matter; you can use current master, ignore doc build error for
now.

git clone grub-repo
git bisect start
git bisect bad
git bisect good OLD-COMMIT-ID
cp docs/grub.texi /path/to/build/tree/docs/grub.texi
(cd /path/to/build/tree; make)

git bisect good|bad
cp docs/grub.texi /path/to/build/tree/docs/grub.texi
(cd /path/to/build/tree; make)

...

repeat until you find the first bad commit.man git-bisect.
