My vote is to put a thread chaser on the screw or bolt before cutting it and then backing the chaser off to clean the threads. As long as the new length isn't super short it works well.
The ideal situation is to have the proper length screw or bolt to begin with or be able to adjust the length with no more than a "moderate" washer stack but that isn't always practical.
