Does has been used since SVN look better?

The term "Committer" was used way before SVN times.

There was also a "cvs commit" command before we switched to SVN and rcs also has a commit/check-in command even earlier.

I rather not mention SVN or CVS either. Just saying it comes from the commit command is good enough IMHO.

This was a suggestion from other revision and I separated the issue to this. I agree with you that this is not a good idea. Closing this revision
