+.SH "SYNOPSIS"
+.sp
+.nf
+COMMIT [ WORK | TRANSACTION ] [ AND [ NO ] CHAIN ]
+.fi
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBCOMMIT\fR

+.SH "PARAMETERS"
+.PP
+WORK
+.br
+TRANSACTION
+.RS 4
+Optional key words\&. They have no effect\&.
+.RE
+.PP
+AND CHAIN
+.RS 4
+If
+AND CHAIN
+is specified, a new transaction is immediately started with the same transaction characteristics (see
+SET TRANSACTION (\fBSET_TRANSACTION\fR(7))) as the just finished one\&. Otherwise, no new transaction is started\&.
+.RE
+.SH "NOTES"
+.PP
+Use
+\fBROLLBACK\fR(7)
+to abort a transaction\&.
+.PP
+Issuing
+\fBCOMMIT\fR
+when not inside a transaction does no harm, but it will provoke a warning message\&.
+\fBCOMMIT AND CHAIN\fR
+when not inside a transaction is an error\&.
+.SH "EXAMPLES"
+.PP
+To commit the current transaction and make all changes permanent:
+.sp
+.if n \{\
+.RS 4
+.\}
+.nf
+COMMIT;
+.fi
+.if n \{\
+.RE
+.\}
+.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
+.PP
+The command
+\fBCOMMIT\fR
+conforms to the SQL standard\&. The form
+COMMIT TRANSACTION
+is a PostgreSQL extension\&.
