A bug has been introduced in the code base I'm working on and I'm attempting to see which changset introduced it. Here's what I've done so far:

Cloned the release branch

$ hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/

Marked the tip as bad

$ hg bisect --bad

Marked the last working changeset I'm aware of working as good

$ hg bisect --good 5500ee2a6206
abort: starting revisions are not directly related

What does this error mean? I'm not quite sure I understand what it's saying. If I run the command once more I get a different message:

$ hg bisect --good 5500ee2a6206
abort: inconsistent state, 275567:5500ee2a6206 is good and bad

I've only marked it as good, how can it be bad as well?
