My team makes several commits locally, then rebases, squashes, and pushes the squashed commit to the trunk which has CI. This maintains a local, regular backup of your code and collects features into single commits for the trunk which are easily revertable if found to be problematic. This flow will not work for everyone, but it works very well for us (a team of 8 at a FAANG company).

Edit: Rereading your comment, I suspect you mean non-local backups. Our organization has a special remote only visible to you and those you allow for pushing code you'd like to backup off of your box.
