Change Set

Definitions

1. A grouped collection of modifications made together, often represented as a commit, patch, or deployable unit of work. Thinking in change sets helps teams reason about review scope, rollback boundaries, and what exactly was introduced by a given update.

   In plain English: A set of related modifications treated as one unit of change.

   Example: "The deploy was easy to rollback because the risky feature had been isolated into a single change set instead of mixed with unrelated refactors."
