What? No `git blame`?

I only learned about it when I read Pro Git. Put crudely, assuming you've found a bug, you give git-blame a script that reproduces the bug, and it performs a binary search through the repo's whole history until it finds the first commit that makes the script fail.

I've never used it, but it sounds like it will be a life saver when I do.
