A Git commit is a snapshot of changes made to a codebase, saved to the local repository's history along with a message describing what was changed and why. Developers use commits to create a granular, traceable record of a project's evolution, making it possible to review history, revert changes, or understand who changed what and when. Writing clear, atomic commit messages is considered a best practice in professional software development workflows.
