> We usually make minor fixes like formatting along with major changes in a single PR. That's fine, but if you did that, please mention it in PR description so reviewers won't find it surprising. > it is possible to make every single line of change a separate PR, and they would still be logically correct, but it would dramatically decrease productivity. It is a balance. besides the PR author's effort, we also need to consider the changes you are making would affect others who work on the same file, and also the time reviewers are putting on the PR. so ideally it is always better to minimize change so that the conflicts are small, and reviews are easier. For instance, as a reviewer if I know you are only change format then it's a simple stamp from me. If you mix formatting and logic changes within the same pr, and does not let me know up front, then my review will be full of questions like "why do you change this, this feels unrelated to the PR". which also waste time of the team. > Of course, I don’t have to do that, and it doesn’t make much sense to create a separate PR just for that. Actually, making another PR for formatting only changes, or comment-only changes, are recommended. they can be marked as minor PRs, and can make review easier. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
