    Skipping revisions does not make the result wrong. In the worst case
    git bisect will point to a range of commits.
    But marking non-building/booting revisions as bad can actually diverge
    bisection in the wrong direction and will result in pointing to
    completely irrelevant commits. git skip is meant exactly for such
    cases.
    And in this case, skipping did not affect the process, it just needed
    to do few more additional steps.
