Examples
If, say, every merged pull request on Github generated a single SVN commit, a lot of those commits would be a mishmash of features that would be much harder to review than if the same changeset was broken into smaller chunks.

For example, I had to worry about how I would merge into my feature branch so that the last changeset on the branch had a Git-SVN reference to my target svn branch.
I've tried using blame on the file, then opening the changeset for the line I'm.
