COMMIT()
NAME
  COMMIT - commit the current transaction

SYNOPSIS
  COMMIT [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]

DESCRIPTION
  COMMIT commits the current transaction. All changes made by the transaction
  become visible to others and are guaranteed to be durable if a crash
  occurs.

PARAMETERS
  WORK

  TRANSACTION
       Optional key words. They have no effect.

NOTES
  Use ROLLBACK [rollback(5)] to abort a transaction.

  Issuing COMMIT when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will
  provoke a warning message.

EXAMPLES
  To commit the current transaction and make all changes permanent:

  COMMIT;

COMPATIBILITY
  The SQL standard only specifies the two forms COMMIT and COMMIT WORK.
  Otherwise, this command is fully conforming.

SEE ALSO
  BEGIN [begin(5)], ROLLBACK [rollback(l)]
