14,242 PointsHow often do you recommend staging and committing your changes?
So I was wondering how often most developers stage and commit their new changes, because it seems that it could get very tedious very quickly.
Do you really recommend doing this for each little change so you can properly track your changes, or is it okay to just gauge whether or not a change is important enough?
And if so, do you have any helpful tips for gauging if a change is important enough to add and commit it?
That's a lot of questions, sorry. :)

Or in the absence of a change order, anything that affects the program operation or the UX (also when complete and tested).
