 # transaction.py - simple journaling scheme for mercurial
 #
 # This transaction scheme is intended to gracefully handle program
 # errors and interruptions. More serious failures like system crashes
 # can be recovered with an fsck-like tool. As the whole repository is
 # effectively log-structured, this should amount to simply truncating
 # anything that isn't referenced in the changelog.
