I commit dozens of times a day, make half a dozen branches, pick commits between them, and generally (ab)use git as a normal part of my workflow. I will generally push one or two of those commits in the end, typically a Frankenstein creation comprised of all that has come before. There are so many ways to approach a problem in any given codebase, and I rarely know which will be the best without experimenting. Having tools that reduce the burden of experimentation and branching is incredibly powerful.
