The following part of the description:

may be a bit confusing, as a reader may wonder if instead it should be:
git bisect (bad|good) [<rev>]
git bisect (old|new) [<rev>...]
Of course the difference between "[<rev>]" and "[<rev>...]" should hint

In the submodule helper we did not correctly handled the display path
for initializing submodules when both the submodule is inside a
subdirectory as well as the command being invoked from a subdirectory
(as viewed from the superproject).
This was broken in 3604242f08, which was written at a time where
there was no super-prefix available, so we abused the --prefix option
for the same purpose and could get only one case right (the call from
within a subdirectory, not the submodule being in a subdirectory).

The 'versionsort.prereleaseSuffix' configuration variable, as its name
suggests, is supposed to only deal with tagnames with prerelease
suffixes, and allows sorting those prerelease tags in a user-defined
order before the suffixless main release tag, instead of sorting them
simply lexicographically.
However, the previous changes in this series resulted in an
interesting and useful property of version sort:
- The empty string as a configured suffix matches all tagnames,
including tagnames without any suffix, but
- tagnames containing a "real" configured suffix are still ordered
according to that real suffix, because any longer suffix takes
precedence over the empty string.
Exploiting this property we can easily generalize suffix reordering
and specify the order of tags with given suffixes not only before but
even after a main release tag by using the empty suffix to denote the
position of the main release tag, without any algorithm changes:
$ git -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-alpha \
-c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-beta \
-c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix="" \
-c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-gamma \
-c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-delta \
tag -l --sort=version:refname 'v3.0*'
v3.0-alpha1
v3.0-beta1
v3.0
v3.0-gamma1
v3.0-delta1
Since 'versionsort.prereleaseSuffix' is not a fitting name for a
configuration variable to control this more general suffix reordering,
introduce the new variable 'versionsort.suffix'. Still keep the old
configuration variable name as a deprecated alias, though, to avoid
suddenly breaking setups already using it. Ignore the old variable if
both old and new configuration variables are set, but emit a warning
so users will be aware of it and can fix their configuration. Extend
the documentation to describe and add a test to check this more
general behavior.
Note: since the empty suffix matches all tagnames, tagnames with
suffixes not included in the configuration are listed together with
the suffixless main release tag, ordered lexicographically right after
that, i.e. before tags with suffixes listed in the configuration
following the empty suffix.

As the number of identical steps to be done for both tagnames grows,

A few of the tests want to check that "git grep -P -E" will
override -P with -E, and vice versa. To do so, we use a
regex with "\x{..}", which is valid in PCRE but not defined
by POSIX (for basic or extended regular expressions).
However, POSIX declares quite a lot of syntax, including
"\x", as "undefined". That leaves implementations free to
extend the standard if they choose. At least one, musl libc,
implements "\x" in the same way as PCRE. Our tests check
that "-E" complains about "\x", which fails with musl.
We can fix this by finding some construct which behaves
reliably on both PCRE and POSIX, but differently in each
system.
One such construct is the use of backslash inside brackets.
In PCRE, "[\d]" interprets "\d" as it would outside the
brackets, matching a digit. Whereas in POSIX, the backslash
must be treated literally, and we match either it or a
literal "d". Moreover, implementations are not free to
change this according to POSIX, so we should be able to rely
on it.
