The first line of my commits describes what the change will be once it's applied, and I try to keep these pretty well defined and under 100 chars or so.
That means there's a nice semantic limit on how much a commit can do, so while a single commit might add 100 media files or even reprettify the whole codebase, I'd split it up if it was doing two things that I couldn't fully describe in two short sentences.
This is a good delineation for when a change is ready for commit. If you describe it simply it is probably too much of a change to the codebase for one commit.
