msgid "commit [noun]"
msgstr "?bertragung (Sendung?, ?bergabe?, Einspielung?, Ablagevorgang?)"

"Vorgang"? (think Beamtendeutsch)

Buchung, Einbuchung, Verbuchung, Registrierung?

Transaktion?

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.
