People who are used to trying to make patch queues are used to
commiting "whatever random shit" in small commits, and then fixing it
up with tools like git-rebase -i --autosquash.

Personally I find myself doing this now even for my personal
projects.  It means precisely that I can avoid thinking about too many
things at once.  Later I get to review the commits again to see if
they make sense.
