Not sure if I understand the question...

"git tag" will give you a list of tags.  "release_2_1_7" looks like a
good choice.  You could use "git log" or "git show" or something like
that to get the hash, but you really don't need to. If you know the
2.1.7 release was good, the you can just do

 "git bisect good release_2_1_7"
