git commit frequency

Question

Since i switched to git from svn i started make more commits every time i recompile and my tests pass i commit my work. In the end i end up committing function by function.<

Answer 1

I also track some other projects using git like emacs,wordpress etc. I see that they do not commit that often.

One of the nice things about git is that you can commit as often as you like, and then when you want to do an upstream commit you can squash several related commits together into one nice clean commit using git-rebase.
