You’ve effectively already started; bisecting is just the process of building various commits (in a binary search-like pattern) until you find the one that causes it, using some specific git tooling to help do this.

You can use [nix-bisect](https://github.com/timokau/nix-bisect) for that. There’s an announcement for it here with some additional info: [Nix-bisect -- Bisect Nix Builds](https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-bisect-bisect-nix-builds/5584)
