+ * @brief Functions to manipulate libalpm transactions
+ *
+ * Transactions are the way to add/remove packages to/from the system.
+ * Only one transaction can exist at a time.
+ *
+ * The basic workflow of a transaction is to:
+ *
+ * - Initialize with \link alpm_trans_init \endlink
+ * - Choose which packages to add with \link alpm_add_pkg \endlink and \link alpm_remove_pkg \endlink
+ * - Prepare the transaction with \link alpm_trans_prepare \endlink
+ * - Commit the transaction with \link alpm_trans_commit \endlink
+ * - Release the transaction with \link alpm_trans_release \endlink
+ *
+ * A transaction can be released at any time. A transaction does not have to be committed.
