I vote for leaving the word commit.
I would be confused by the word "archiviazione".
Well, yes, most people currently using git will be as well.
But that's because they're used to it. The thread that talked
about the German translation decided to look for a fitting
German word, so I decided to follow them. If you're vetoing
these changes, I'll redo them. Otherwise, if you don't have
a strong adverse opinion, I think this translation is quite
clear, and would leave less people asking
"What's a commit?". Don't you think?
I understand that we should aim for a complete Italian translation but
"archiviazione" to me sounds like "backup" or "archive".  It doesn't
sound  like a proper translation.

I discussed this topic on the Linux Translation Project mailing list
and the majority of the people seems to agree on leaving the word
untraslated but I really cannot say that I reached a _real_ agreement.

In short, I'm still think we should leave the word untranslated.

How about posting the new file to ltp and move there the discussion?
