Application development - Record
Commit
A saved set of code changes, usually with a note explaining them
What's it for?
Creates a saved point in the history of software changes so teams can see what changed and restore an earlier version if needed.
For example…
Someone commits 'Fix VAT rounding on invoices' with just the files that address that bug
A developer commits a small fix with the message “Handle missing postcode in checkout”, creating a clear point that can be reviewed or reverted.
Think of it like…
Dating and labelling a photo of the workbench after each meaningful step of a repair
