What about commiting more stuff at once?
I would like to do that :-)  But I find that people hate
large patches.  Even with good summaries of the changes,
it is hard to decyfer large diffs.
The make program is so important in our build process that
if I break it, I want people to be able to revert as few
patches as possible.
Also when I submit patches to FreeBSD, the person committing
my work into their tree responds much faster with smaller
patches.  And is less likely to break subsequent patches,
when he adds his own style changes.
