/**

 * Marking a method {@code @Transactional} will start a new transaction before the method
 * executes and commit it after the method returns.
 * <p>
 * If the method throws an exception, the transaction will be rolled back <em>unless
 * you have specifically requested not to in the {@link #ignore()} clause.
 * <p>
 * Similarly, the set of exceptions that will trigger a rollback can be defined in
 * the {@link #rollbackOn()} clause. By default, only unchecked exceptions trigger a
 * rollback.
