+<h1 id="savepoints"><span>2. </span>Savepoints</h1>
+
+<p> SAVEPOINTs are a method of creating transactions, similar to
+<a href="lang_transaction.html">BEGIN</a> and <a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a>, except that the SAVEPOINT and RELEASE commands
+are named and may be nested.</p>
+
+<p> The SAVEPOINT command starts a new transaction with a name.
+The transaction names need not be unique.
+A SAVEPOINT can be started either within or outside of
+a <a href="lang_transaction.html">BEGIN</a>...<a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a>. When a SAVEPOINT is the outer-most savepoint
+and it is not within a <a href="lang_transaction.html">BEGIN</a>...<a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a> then the behavior is the
+same as BEGIN DEFERRED TRANSACTION.</p>
+
+<p>The ROLLBACK TO command reverts the state of the database back to what
+it was just after the corresponding SAVEPOINT. Note that unlike that
+plain <a href="lang_transaction.html">ROLLBACK</a> command (without the TO keyword) the ROLLBACK TO command
+does not cancel the transaction. Instead of cancelling the transaction,
+the ROLLBACK TO command restarts the transaction again at the beginning.
+All intervening SAVEPOINTs are canceled, however.</p>
+
+<p>The RELEASE command is like a <a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a> for a SAVEPOINT.
+The RELEASE command causes all savepoints back to and including the
+most recent savepoint with a matching name to be removed from the
+transaction stack. The RELEASE of an inner transaction
+does not cause any changes to be written to the database file; it merely
+removes savepoints from the transaction stack such that it is
+no longer possible to ROLLBACK TO those savepoints.
+If a RELEASE command releases the outermost savepoint, so
+that the transaction stack becomes empty, then RELEASE is the same
+as <a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a>.
+The <a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a> command may be used to release all savepoints and
+commit the transaction even if the transaction was originally started
+by a SAVEPOINT command instead of a <a href="lang_transaction.html">BEGIN</a> command.</p>
+
+<p>If the savepoint-name in a RELEASE command does not match any
+savepoint currently in the transaction stack, then no savepoints are
+released, the database is unchanged, and the RELEASE command returns
+an error.</p>
+
+<p>Note that an inner transaction might commit (using the RELEASE command)
+but then later have its work undone by a ROLLBACK in an outer transaction.
+A power failure or program crash or OS crash will cause the outer-most
+transaction to rollback, undoing all changes that have occurred within
+that outer transaction, even changes that have supposedly been "committed"
+by the RELEASE command. Content is not actually committed on the disk
+until the outermost transaction commits.</p>
+
+<p>There are several ways of thinking about the RELEASE command:</p>
+
+<ul>
+<li><p>
+Some people view RELEASE as the equivalent of COMMIT for a SAVEPOINT.
+This is an acceptable point of view as long as one remembers that the
+changes committed by an inner transaction might later be undone by a
+rollback in an outer transaction.</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+Another view of RELEASE is that it merges a named transaction into its
+parent transaction, so that the named transaction and its parent become
+the same transaction. After RELEASE, the named transaction and its parent
+will commit or rollback together, whatever their fate may be.
+</p></li>
+
+<li><p>
+One can also think of savepoints as
+"marks" in the transaction timeline. In this view, the SAVEPOINT command
+creates a new mark, the ROLLBACK TO command rewinds the timeline back
+to a point just after the named mark, and the RELEASE command
+erases marks from the timeline without actually making any
+changes to the database.
+</p></li>
+</ul>
+
+
+
+<h1 id="transaction_nesting_rules"><span>3. </span>Transaction Nesting Rules</h1>
+
+<p>The last transaction started will be the first
+transaction committed or rolled back.</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="lang_transaction.html">BEGIN</a> command only works if the transaction stack is empty, or
+in other words if there are no pending transactions. If the transaction
+stack is not empty when the <a href="lang_transaction.html">BEGIN</a> command is invoked, then the command
+fails with an error.</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="lang_transaction.html">COMMIT</a> command commits all outstanding transactions and leaves
+the transaction stack empty.</p>
+
+<p>The RELEASE command starts with the most recent addition to the
+transaction stack and releases savepoints backwards
+in time until it releases a savepoint with a matching savepoint-name.
+Prior savepoints, even savepoints with matching savepoint-names, are
+unchanged.
+If the RELEASE command causes the
+transaction stack to become empty (if the RELEASE command releases the
+outermost transaction from the stack) then the transaction commits.</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="lang_transaction.html">ROLLBACK</a> command without a TO clause rolls backs all transactions
+and leaves the transaction stack empty.</p>
+
+<p>The ROLLBACK command with a TO clause rolls back transactions going
+backwards in time back to the most recent SAVEPOINT with a matching name.
+The SAVEPOINT with the matching name remains on the transaction stack,
+but all database changes that occurred after that SAVEPOINT was created
+are rolled back. If the savepoint-name in a ROLLBACK TO command does not
+match any SAVEPOINT on the stack, then the ROLLBACK command fails with an
+error and leaves the state of the database unchanged.</p>
