NAME
       END - commit the current transaction


SYNOPSIS
       END [ WORK | TRANSACTION ]


DESCRIPTION
       END  commits the current transaction. All changes made by the transac-
       tion become visible to others and are guaranteed to be  durable	if  a
       crash  occurs.  This command is a PostgreSQL extension that is equiva-
       lent to COMMIT [commit(7)].

PARAMETERS
       WORK

       TRANSACTION
	      Optional key words. They have no effect.

NOTES
       Use ROLLBACK [rollback(7)] to abort a transaction.

       Issuing END 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:

       END;


COMPATIBILITY
       END  is	a PostgreSQL extension that provides functionality equivalent
       to COMMIT [commit(7)], which is specified in the SQL standard.

SEE ALSO
       BEGIN [begin(7)], COMMIT [commit(l)], ROLLBACK [rollback(l)]
