I still say the answer is "it depends" with respect to large vs. small as it's 
more about complexity.  If you're adding request/response tracking, 
conversation data, or changes to a state machine those can get complicated 
quickly so a small patch would be preferred.  If you need to add 100 fields to 
dissector, but the dissection itself is fairly straightforward (just TLVs, or 
simple structure/lists of fields), that's okay as one large patch.

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] small vs large patch sets ?



Hi,


I'm updating 2 dissectors (packet-noe and packet-ua3g). So far, I've submitted
changes one by one (small patches). I believe it's the preferred solution for
reviewers instead of a large patch with everything in it.


Can you confirm?


Until now, I've wait for a patch to be merged before submitting the next one. My
workflow is probably wrong...


Is there a better way of doing thing?
