Good idea.
I have it on my laptop and I have 8 bisection steps to do (the most recent
version tag is good, yes!), but the repo seems broken at ea672e62cc.
I am looking at the code and these vars are in fact not defined. I
commented out this block and am pressing on.

However, this looks like a bug.
You should be able to reproduce this by bisection with main=good and
v3.15.1=bad.
First step fails with this:

/Users/markadams/Codes/petsc2/src/dm/dt/fe/impls/basic/febasic.c:1138:11:
error: use of undeclared identifier 'n0'
      if (n0) {
          ^
/Users/markadams/Codes/petsc2/src/dm/dt/fe/impls/basic/febasic.c:1143:11:
error: use of undeclared identifier 'n1'
      if (n1) {
          ^
