Committing Changes

Committing saves a snapshot of the staged changes to the repository's history, along with a message describing what was changed and why. Each commit gets a unique hash that identifies it and allows Git to track the exact state of the project at that point. Commits build the timeline that developers can browse, compare, or revert to later.
