+# transaction.py - simple journalling 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.
