> If I need to write several paragraphs about > the changes I'm making, it's definitely too > large a commit. careful, this is subjective, and a lot of people consider it best practice to commit in small chunks but rewrite local history right before we push to squash everything into one changeset for the issue. the idea being it keeps the master history high level which is more useful when looking at other-peoples-commits.
