Commit
Commit is an expression from software technology that describes the confirmatory activation of one or more changes. It is used both in connection with the persistence of data in a database and when entering program source code in version management systems.
Transactions
In databases, a commit is the successful completion of a transaction . The result of the processing steps is saved permanently, usually by the SQL command . In contrast to this, a rollback reverses all individual steps in the transaction and returns the system to its original state.
Commit
However, transactions are not only common in database systems, they can also be used, for example, in message-oriented middleware . Here, too, when a transaction is concluded, one speaks of a "commit" or "rollback" (German: undo, annul).
Version management
When using version management systems, commit or check-in is the process of importing new or changed source code and other files into the version management system. A new version of the software is made available to the other developers involved in software development .
Committed storage
Microsoft uses the term commit in the sense of committed memory in the task manager of Windows 10 .
