Explanation

A Git commit is a snapshot of the entire repository at a specific point in time. When you commit, Git records the state of every tracked file-not just the changed lines-and stores a reference (SHA hash) to that snapshot. This is different from a delta-based system; Git reconstructs file states from snapshots. The commit also stores metadata like the author, timestamp, and commit message, but the core concept is the full repository snapshot.
