GIT: you are currently not on a branch

I'm in master.
I went to history git checkout 845454514231. And I made a lot of changes to the code.
When I now do git commit I will get error you are currently not on a branch. Understandably.

How do I force commit these changes? I don't mind losing any past/future code. My current code is only thing that matters.

git checkout -b temp

git branch -d temp
