Hi
I would like to be able to "mark" a point in my postgres database.
After that I want to change a few things and "rollback" to that point.
Does postgres support such a thing? Is it possible for me to do this?
Well, transactions do that. If you want to do this inside a
transaction, the term you're looking for is "savepoints".
I would like to do this globally over the entire DB, is that possible?
Sure. You can start a transaction, create tables, drop tables, do
inserts and deletes, update some tables, create and delete functions,
triggers, views and schemas. After that, rollback. No problem.
Can I do this outside of a transaction?
