In some cases, the same change should be made to many parts of the codebase. This includes things like adding set -o pipefail to shell scripts or moving command substitutions to their own commands. Should one send a single patch that makes all the changes, or should one send a bunch of tiny patches?

Preferably, the answer should be added to the documentation so people don't need to ask again :)

A single patch with no component prefix in the subject line is fine. Documentation doesn't currently have a good place for this sort of thing but I'll note the request for when we restructure it next year.
