Sure! Thanks for helping.

1. Start:
     git bisect start
     git bisect good <commit hash or tag name of the version that works> (Ex: 
v1.7.1)
     git bisect bad <commit hash or tag name of the non working version> (Ex: 
HEAD)
2. Git will checkout commits for you and you have to check and answer:
     git bisect good or git bisect bad 
3. Git will show you the first bad commit.

A more detailed version here:

Look for git-bisect.

Thanks,
Marcel
