I know I commit far more than my coworkers, but that does not reflect the LOC or "amount" of work. I just visualize and chunk things up into commits more frequently.

my commit count is really low. i usually squash my commits before submitting a PR.

that was the workflow at my previous place of work, so it just became my workflow habitually.

This is not good practice in many circumstances. Large commits are very hard for others to review.
