According to a topic under Designing your Workflow - Commit Pending Changes Action NW2010 & NW2013 there are two batches - one for Nintex and one for SharePoint.

I have something like this (in SP2013):

Query list returns the old value. This is ok as Set field value is batched in SharePoint batch. But when I have something like this:

Query list returns a new value. Doesn't this mean that Commit pending changes committed SharePoint batch?? And according to the document I mentioned earlier this shouldn't commit SharePoint batch. How is that possible?

As the document states

The "Commit pending changes" action is another point where a workflow will execute all its batch operations.

So when you add "Commit Pending Change" to your workflow, the workflow is going to execute all it's batches up to that point. Regardless if they are Nintex batches, SharePoint batches, or some other batch.  So the behavior you are seeing is expected.

Ah ok, I did not fully understand this until now... Thank you.
