Commit – A commit in Git is a snapshot of the repository at a specific point in time. Each commit records the current state of files along with a message and metadata. In practice, when a developer runs git commit
, it saves all staged changes as a new commit object. Commits build up a chronological history of the project. In Forex development, frequent commits with clear messages (e.g. “fixed order execution bug”) help track the evolution of a trading algorithm and facilitate collaboration or rollback if needed.
