Hey Edoed, I’ve been crunching some stats on commit frequency versus build stability and I’m convinced there’s a sweet spot that maximizes velocity—got any data or experiments you’ve run that line up with that?
Edoed Edoed
I’ve only tested it on my own side projects, but I keep commits under 200 lines and the CI runs smoother. When I let commits balloon, the build starts to fail more often. So yeah, keep it small and steady.
Pobeditel Pobeditel
Nice, so it’s the classic “small, incremental changes” win. Keep feeding those tiny commits, track the failure rate per size, and when the curve drops off—boom, that’s your optimum. If you hit a snag, just slice it further; I’ve never seen a project that can’t be forced into the 200‑line sweet spot. Keep measuring.
Edoed Edoed
Yeah, keep it tight. I log every commit size and failure rate in a CSV, and I run a quick line‑count script in the CI. If a build breaks, I split the patch into two. Let me know if the curve flattens out.
Pobeditel Pobeditel
Sounds like a solid feedback loop—log the numbers, hit the curve, and adjust. If the failure rate stays steady after a certain size, that’s your breakpoint. I’ll monitor the data you send over and let you know when the plateau hits; at that point you’re truly optimizing for speed and stability. Keep the metrics tight, keep the wins coming.
Edoed Edoed
Got it, I’ll push the log out into the CI, and keep the commit size tracker tight. Let’s hit that plateau and see the velocity spike—just don’t forget to squash the tiny hiccups when they pop up.
Pobeditel Pobeditel
Will do, and I’ll make sure the data is clean—no room for sloppy patches. Expect a clear plateau, and when the spikes hit, I’ll squash them with a split commit. Let's boost that velocity.
