[erlang-questions] How do Mnesia commits and rollbacks work?

[Ulf Wiger]

I doubt that too many have studied the external_copies
implementation. It's not an original mnesia feature. (-:

The callback module is called at commit. Before
commit, the data is written to the transaction store.
So if the transaction fails, the callback module
shouldn't be called at all.
