Throughout the NSManagedObjectContext API reference I read about "changes" being "committed", but I can't find any definition of that phrase. Since I understand that Core Data is not a database, I don't want to assume database lingo.

Is "commit changes" synonymous with "send the managed object context a save: message and see it return YES"?

There is also discussion of "commit editing" but that seems to be something different.

Thanks,

Examples:

1. "Through a context you can ... either discard the changes or—again through the context—commit them back to the persistent store. ... You can insert new objects and delete ones you have fetched, and commit these modifications to the persistent store."

2.  "It is assigned a permanent global ID when changes are committed."
