MMDV, and for my current project we have code reviews that don't pass and merge unless the automated CI (builds, tests, lints, etc) pass, so if your new feature takes 1000 lines of code, so be it. We do try to keep to the minimum necessary change, though, and focus on tight conceptual chunks. But a patch should never break the tests, especially not to keep it below a certain size, otherwise how do you do automated bisects?
