Velocity calculation

Question

We view velocity by hours (not story points) and would like to:

1) validate that the "commitment" is the total of hours at the sprint start.

2) inquire whether the the "completed" amount is the number of hours actually reported on the issues that were closed (furthest right on my board), OR is it the number of hours ESTIMATED for the issues that were closed?

completed value is the Time Spent to complete a task or you can say that time Logged

I understand commitment values come from estimates - and, yes, thank you, I've seen the link referenced.   My confusion is where the "completed" values come from - I would like to verify the "completed" value comes from time logged against the committed issues.  Any help would be appreciated.
