When using client-side transaction retries, the RELEASE SAVEPOINT cockroach_restart statement commits the transaction.
If statements in the transaction generated any non-retryable errors, RELEASE SAVEPOINT cockroach_restart is equivalent to ROLLBACK, which aborts the transaction and discards all updates made by its statements.
Despite committing the transaction, you must still issue a COMMIT statement to prepare the connection for the next transaction.
SAVEPOINT implementation only supports the cockroach_restart savepoint and does not support all savepoint functionality, such as nested transactions.Synopsis
Required privileges
No privileges are required to release a savepoint. However, privileges are required for each statement within a transaction.
Examples
Commit a Transaction
After declaring SAVEPOINT cockroach_restart, commit the transaction with RELEASE SAVEPOINT cockroach_restart and then prepare the connection for the next transaction with COMMIT.
> BEGIN;
> SAVEPOINT cockroach_restart;
> UPDATE products SET inventory = 0 WHERE sku = '8675309';
> INSERT INTO orders (customer, sku, status) VALUES (1001, '8675309', 'new');
> RELEASE SAVEPOINT cockroach_restart;
> COMMIT;
