I've already done this. I switched over to a local git repo a few weeks
ago, using git-svn to interface with our svn repo. So I commit changes
locally as I go, and then infrequently batch-commit them back to SVN. On
Nov 2 I committed ten changes in less than a minute.
When we move to git it may be more normal for developers to commit like
this. It's possible to batch all your local changes into one big change,
but I think smaller changes are better for reviewing anyway.
And who knows what automated scripts might do, even today.
I do agree that more than a bug per minute might be excessive, unless
there is some legit reason why a bot would do that (perhaps looking for
linting errors?).
