The real problem is that we use "commit" in two senses:
- the action ("to commit", but also, "to do a commit") of making a new
revision, but also- the revision in the revision graph ("is this in the commit abcdef?").So I do not think that any proposals reflect the ambiguity of "a commit". I actually talk about "Revision" in German, when I refer to a commit.
