The Charter has the official language and specific details that must be adhered to, but in a nutshell it works like this:

Adding a Committer:

...

Committer Request Template

The sitting Committers vote for a member of the community to be promoted based upon contribution to the project (documentation in the form of an email thread or meeting minutes required)
The TSC confirms the selection of the new Committer
The PTL submits a request to the Linux Foundation Infrastructure team at onap-helpdesk@lists.onap.org indicating the person, their email, Linux Foundation ID (LFID), and what repositories they should become committers on. Please also point to the TSC Meeting minutes or ONAP-TSC Archives thread where the Committer approval was made by the TSC.

...

Demonstrated failure of the Committer to effectively perform her/his duties for an extended period of time
2/3rds of the sitting Committers vote to remove the Committer (documentation in the form of an email thread or meeting minutes required)
The PTL informs the TSC of the Committer's removal.
The PTL requests the LF Infrastructure team to remove the committer rights for the individual by sending the request to onap-helpdesk@lists.onap.org. Please include the committer name, email, LFID and list of repo(s) that the individual should be removed from. Please also include a pointer to the TSC minutes where TSC was informed of this action.
