Looks like you got stuck on that first paragraph. The author doesn’t even make an analogy between small commits and small docs, it’s just used as a hook for the intro.
- TeMPOraL 2y agoI disagree. I believe it's the load-bearing analogy that's carrying all the ideas in the article. Consider e.g. the sections "The benefits of small docs" and "Avoid blocking yourself during reviews" - they're mostly about workflow. They apply to changesets, not the artifact itself. I feel like there's an implied assumption in the article, that documents are always submitted and reviewed wholesale, so to get the benefits of small commits, you need to make the document small enough to qualify as a small commit. If that's the idea, then I disagree with it.
