Save a minor detail. It would be
begin;savepoint; select 0/0; -- abort savepoint; -- commands will be ignored select 1; -- commands will be
ignored release; -- commands will be ignored release; -- commands will be ignored
commit; -- abort message
Note that I'm trying to tell you something with the indenting; all those
commands are inside one and the same subtransaction.
And I'm not planning to do anonymous savepoint. Do these buy us
anything?
