I think that preferences along these lines are inherently subjective, and some people may well really be better served by the more traditional workflow where every commit is something you commit to. I just wish this wasn't presented as the one and only right way to do things, to the point where software actively resists any other.

Isn't that backwards though? Git supports "rare commits that you commit to" just fine. It's Fossil that refuses to support the "commit rapidly and frequently on a whim and fix up a submission later" idiom.

That's exactly my problem with Fossil.
