I think a big part of the trouble is people *think* of git history as a linear log instead of a graph. We are guided by our mental models.

I wouldn't say "appropriate" or "not appropriate". I would say "I never feel the need to do that."
-
For the record, my personal working style is to be very intentional with commits. So I don't see nearly as much post-facto "clean up."
-
I would go further and say my bias in this convo is I don't like that people do messy commits in the first place.
-
A commit isn't just a cmd-s on the last thing you were typing. I think of it as an intentional unit of change to the system.
-
I'm super messy when I code, just like everyone else. But I do that first, and then think about how I want to commit it as a separate loop.
-
This represents an impressive faith in your hardware. `git ci -amx && git push origin +wip` is my jam.
-
No it doesn't. I wrap up my work, do intentional commits, and push every day. I'm okay losing a day of work.

This isn't judgment. I'm acknowleding we all have different workflows. Mine is motivated by different things than yours.
