+// # Transactions
+//
+//
+// Each session can have at most one active transaction at a time. After the
+// active transaction is completed, the session can immediately be
+// re-used for the next transaction. It is not necessary to create a
+// new session for each transaction.
+//
+// # Transaction Modes
+//
+// Cloud Spanner supports two transaction modes:
+//
+// 1. Locking read-write. This type of transaction is the only way
+// to write data into Cloud Spanner. These transactions rely on
+// pessimistic locking and, if necessary, two-phase commit.
+// Locking read-write transactions may abort, requiring the
+// application to retry.
+//
+// 2. Snapshot read-only. This transaction type provides guaranteed
+// consistency across several reads, but does not allow
+// writes. Snapshot read-only transactions can be configured to
+// read at timestamps in the past. Snapshot read-only
+// transactions do not need to be committed.
+//
+// For transactions that only read, snapshot read-only transactions
+// provide simpler semantics and are almost always faster. In
+// particular, read-only transactions do not take locks, so they do
+// not conflict with read-write transactions. As a consequence of not
+// taking locks, they also do not abort, so retry loops are not needed.
+//
+// Transactions may only read/write data in a single database. They
+// may, however, read/write data in different tables within that
+// database.
+//
+// ## Locking Read-Write Transactions
+//
+// Locking transactions may be used to atomically read-modify-write
+// data anywhere in a database. This type of transaction is externally
+// consistent.
+//
+// Clients should attempt to minimize the amount of time a transaction
+// is active. Faster transactions commit with higher probability
+// and cause less contention. Cloud Spanner attempts to keep read locks
+// active as long as the transaction continues to do reads, and the
+// transaction has not been terminated by
+// [Commit][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Commit] or
+// [Rollback][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Rollback]. Long periods of
+// inactivity at the client may cause Cloud Spanner to release a
+// transaction's locks and abort it.
+//
+// Reads performed within a transaction acquire locks on the data
+// being read. Writes can only be done at commit time, after all reads
+// have been completed.
+// Conceptually, a read-write transaction consists of zero or more
+// reads or SQL queries followed by
+// [Commit][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Commit]. At any time before
+// [Commit][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Commit], the client can send a
+// [Rollback][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Rollback] request to abort the
+// transaction.
+//
+// ### Semantics
+//
+// Cloud Spanner can commit the transaction if all read locks it acquired
+// are still valid at commit time, and it is able to acquire write
+// locks for all writes. Cloud Spanner can abort the transaction for any
+// reason. If a commit attempt returns `ABORTED`, Cloud Spanner guarantees
+// that the transaction has not modified any user data in Cloud Spanner.
+//
+// Unless the transaction commits, Cloud Spanner makes no guarantees about
+// how long the transaction's locks were held for. It is an error to
+// use Cloud Spanner locks for any sort of mutual exclusion other than
+// between Cloud Spanner transactions themselves.
+//
+// ### Retrying Aborted Transactions
+//
+// When a transaction aborts, the application can choose to retry the
+// whole transaction again. To maximize the chances of successfully
+// committing the retry, the client should execute the retry in the
+// same session as the original attempt. The original session's lock
+// priority increases with each consecutive abort, meaning that each
+// attempt has a slightly better chance of success than the previous.
+//
+// Under some circumstances (e.g., many transactions attempting to
+// modify the same row(s)), a transaction can abort many times in a
+// short period before successfully committing. Thus, it is not a good
+// idea to cap the number of retries a transaction can attempt;
+// instead, it is better to limit the total amount of wall time spent
+// retrying.
+//
+// ### Idle Transactions
+//
+// A transaction is considered idle if it has no outstanding reads or
+// SQL queries and has not started a read or SQL query within the last 10
+// seconds. Idle transactions can be aborted by Cloud Spanner so that they
+// don't hold on to locks indefinitely. In that case, the commit will
+// fail with error `ABORTED`.
+//
+// If this behavior is undesirable, periodically executing a simple
+// SQL query in the transaction (e.g., `SELECT 1`) prevents the
+// transaction from becoming idle.
+//
+// ## Snapshot Read-Only Transactions
+//
+// Snapshot read-only transactions provides a simpler method than
+// locking read-write transactions for doing several consistent
+// reads. However, this type of transaction does not support writes.
+//
+// Snapshot transactions do not take locks. Instead, they work by
+// choosing a Cloud Spanner timestamp, then executing all reads at that
+// timestamp. Since they do not acquire locks, they do not block
+// concurrent read-write transactions.
+//
+// Unlike locking read-write transactions, snapshot read-only
+// transactions never abort. They can fail if the chosen read
+// timestamp is garbage collected; however, the default garbage
+// collection policy is generous enough that most applications do not
+// need to worry about this in practice.
+//
+// Snapshot read-only transactions do not need to call
+// [Commit][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Commit] or
+// [Rollback][google.spanner.v1.Spanner.Rollback] (and in fact are not
+// permitted to do so).
+//
+// To execute a snapshot transaction, the client specifies a timestamp
+// bound, which tells Cloud Spanner how to choose a read timestamp.
+//
+// The types of timestamp bound are:
+//
+// - Strong (the default).
+// - Bounded staleness.
+// - Exact staleness.
+//
+// If the Cloud Spanner database to be read is geographically distributed,
+// stale read-only transactions can execute more quickly than strong
+// or read-write transaction, because they are able to execute far
+// from the leader replica.
+//
+// Each type of timestamp bound is discussed in detail below.
+//
+// ### Strong
+//
+// Strong reads are guaranteed to see the effects of all transactions
+// that have committed before the start of the read. Furthermore, all
+// rows yielded by a single read are consistent with each other -- if
+// any part of the read observes a transaction, all parts of the read
+// see the transaction.
+//
+// Strong reads are not repeatable: two consecutive strong read-only
+// transactions might return inconsistent results if there are
+// concurrent writes. If consistency across reads is required, the
+// reads should be executed within a transaction or at an exact read
+// timestamp.
+//
+// See [TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.strong][google.spanner.v1.TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.strong].
+//
+// ### Exact Staleness
+//
+// These timestamp bounds execute reads at a user-specified
+// timestamp. Reads at a timestamp are guaranteed to see a consistent
+// prefix of the global transaction history: they observe
+// modifications done by all transactions with a commit timestamp <=
+// the read timestamp, and observe none of the modifications done by
+// transactions with a larger commit timestamp. They will block until
+// all conflicting transactions that may be assigned commit timestamps
+// <= the read timestamp have finished.
+//
+// The timestamp can either be expressed as an absolute Cloud Spanner commit
+// timestamp or a staleness relative to the current time.
+//
+// These modes do not require a "negotiation phase" to pick a
+// timestamp. As a result, they execute slightly faster than the
+// equivalent boundedly stale concurrency modes. On the other hand,
+// boundedly stale reads usually return fresher results.
+//
+// See [TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.read_timestamp][google.spanner.v1.TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.read_timestamp] and
+// [TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.exact_staleness][google.spanner.v1.TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.exact_staleness].
+//
+// ### Bounded Staleness
+//
+// Bounded staleness modes allow Cloud Spanner to pick the read timestamp,
+// subject to a user-provided staleness bound. Cloud Spanner chooses the
+// newest timestamp within the staleness bound that allows execution
+// of the reads at the closest available replica without blocking.
+//
+// All rows yielded are consistent with each other -- if any part of
+// the read observes a transaction, all parts of the read see the
+// transaction. Boundedly stale reads are not repeatable: two stale
+// reads, even if they use the same staleness bound, can execute at
+// different timestamps and thus return inconsistent results.
+//
+// Boundedly stale reads execute in two phases: the first phase
+// negotiates a timestamp among all replicas needed to serve the
+// read. In the second phase, reads are executed at the negotiated
+// timestamp.
+//
+// As a result of the two phase execution, bounded staleness reads are
+// usually a little slower than comparable exact staleness
+// reads. However, they are typically able to return fresher
+// results, and are more likely to execute at the closest replica.
+//
+// Because the timestamp negotiation requires up-front knowledge of
+// which rows will be read, it can only be used with single-use
+// read-only transactions.
+//
+// See [TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.max_staleness][google.spanner.v1.TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.max_staleness] and
+// [TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.min_read_timestamp][google.spanner.v1.TransactionOptions.ReadOnly.min_read_timestamp].
+//
+// ### Old Read Timestamps and Garbage Collection
+//
+// Cloud Spanner continuously garbage collects deleted and overwritten data
+// in the background to reclaim storage space. This process is known
+// as "version GC". By default, version GC reclaims versions after they
+// are one hour old. Because of this, Cloud Spanner cannot perform reads
+// at read timestamps more than one hour in the past. This
+// restriction also applies to in-progress reads and/or SQL queries whose
+// timestamp become too old while executing. Reads and SQL queries with
+// too-old read timestamps fail with the error `FAILED_PRECONDITION`.
