Why does Database#transaction always return true?

[steveg-h]

Database#transaction always return true.

This doesn't strike me as very helpful behaviour - it doesn't allow you to simply pull the result of the last SQL statement executed in the transaction as the result of the transaction

I have suggest the following modification (which I have submitted in a pull request) Database#transaction should return

• the return value of the block (if not nil)
• otherwise true if transaction committed

I will submit a patch against this issue :-)
