This piece of code verifies correct behaviour:

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <io.h>

int
main (int argc, char **argv)
{
        int f;
        char *tmp = "Test";

        f = open ("commit.tmp", O_RDWR | O_CREAT);
        write (f, tmp, strlen (tmp));
        printf ("Written. Press any key.\n");
        getch ();
        _commit (f);
        printf ("Committed. Press any key.\n");
        getch ();
        close (f);
        return 0;
}

Before _commit(): filesize: 0
After _commit(): filesize 4; ctime changed

Thus it is kind of pendant of fsync().
