Seriously. Just commit one thing at a time. Don’t wait until you go home, don’t fix three really simple bugs before committing, commit every single change separately.

This is important. Nothing fills me with dread like a commit message that says "fixed NullPointerException in renderer (also a few whitespace changes)".
