Not really. If bugs are in "unrelated" areas (if the topic changed some API without changing its' other callers, fe), you can backstep between each commit on the merged branch, remerge that commit (instead of the tip) and then run the tests again.
Doing that manually? Sounds really complicated, especially if the merge is nontrivial.
But really, such bugs should have been detected prior to merging the branch, and in any case "git bisect" will find the commit that introduced the bug for you either way.
How will you detect bugs that arise from merging two trees, before you merge them?
For next time, please cut away those parts of the email you didn't reply to. I had to scroll down to the bottom to make sure you hadn't written more.
I'll try sorry. Most email clients will hide the quoted text - there might be an option for that in your client? John
