Commit is a version control operation that sends the changes in the working files to the local repository.
When you select the Commit command, the first thing that happens is File > Save All. Then the Commit pane is displayed in the Code Editor window. The Commit pane is composed of two sections. The upper section lists all the files you can select to commit (unchanged files are not listed). The lower section is an entry field for your comments. To select a file to commit, select the check box in front of the file name. If the check box in front of a file is not selected, the file is ignored.
