Well, git doesn't really commit 'to' a branch.
You just build commits, and then later on you muck around with the mutable pointers that are branches.

How "to" do you want to make it? That description's totally disingenuous.
"later on" makes it sound to a human like it takes any real amount of time or that it isn't basically instant and wrapped by up porcelean, and "muck around with" implies that there's anything more random or complicated to it then writing the sha to a file in the right place in the .git directory.
