Volume of commits

Hi List,

I was wondering -- whenever I see Git patches committed to projects
like the Linux kernel or Git itself, the commits always seems to be
committing rather large changes and be rather well-defined in terms of
what they change.

When I develop for myself, I usually commit incrementally quite a
bit, if for no other reason because Git won't let me switch between
branches if I don't commit first. I usually try to keep my commits
well-defined, but I don't manage to get anywhere close to what I see
when I look at the history of Linux or Git.

So what I'm wondering is how you people manage to do this? Do you
actually always commit changes this way (and, in that case, how do you
switch between branches)? Or do you somehow aggregate the smaller
commits into larger patches and recommit them? Or is there some third
possibility that I'm missing?
