Different Commit Operations - "Commit Files" vs "Full Profiles and Permission sets"
Commit Files Operation - Incremental Changes
As a best practice, we will always use the "Commit Files" operation, which allows us to commit the profile/perm set changes incrementally (only commit & deploy what has changed, and not the full permset/profile).
For this, we will have to select the profile or permset, and additionally select as "retrieve only" the metadata for which permission has been modified (you can add the metadata without "retrieve only" if you also need to include the metadata change in the commit).
For example, to commit a profile where a field permission has been updated, and an apex class permission has been updated, it would look like the following (the same would apply for permission sets):
(Note that this is just an example)

Full Profiles & Permission Sets Operation
This should only be used when we want to commit the full profile/permission set, and never when we just want to update a few permissions on it. In
