+<h2>I have changed some files and I want to record the changes</h2>
+
+<p>Click the Commit button in the toolbar on the left to commit all of
+the changes you have made to tracked files in your working folder.
+That is, all files listed as <b>&ldquo;Modified&rdquo;</b>, <b>&ldquo;Removed&rdquo;</b>, or <b>&ldquo;Added&rdquo;</b>
+under &ldquo;My Work&rdquo;.</p>
+
+<p>(If the files you have changed are still listed as <b>&ldquo;Untracked&rdquo;</b>, then
+you must add them before you can commit.  See <a href="a-20.html">I've added a new file...</a>.</p>
+
+<p>When you commit your changes, you will be asked for a commit message
+which will accompany that change set in the history.  Enter something
+that will help you remember &ndash; and other readers understand &ndash; what
+you have changed and why.</p>
+
+<p>If you want to commit only some files, right-click on them in the list
+and choose Commit from the context menu.
+<ul><li>Note: the equivalent Mercurial command for this is <b>hg commit</b></li></ul></p>
