Google: How Google takes the pain out of code reviews
Purpose-built reviews, small steps, developer-loved. Twigg is inspired by this approach.
“Previous studies have found that the number of useful comments decreases and the review latency increases
as the size of the change increases. Size also influences developers’ perception of the code review process;
a survey of Mozilla contributors found that developers feel that size-related factors have the greatest
effect on review latency.”

“the smaller a review is, the better it’s going to be.”
Keeping changes compact reduces burden; reviews touching ~20+ files were considered too big.
