I can sometimes produce a flurry of small and insignificant commits, or spend weeks to produce just one. Frequency or volume of commits probably is a better measure of how organized a person is, and how predictable their task is, than the amount of work they’ve performed. It might be a better measure than lines of code, but I don’t know that it’s meaningfully better.
