+Transactions and autocommit in PostgreSQL
+=========================================
+
+.. versionadded:: 1.1
+
+By default, Django starts a transaction when a database connection is first
+used and regularly commits, as above. The PostgreSQL backends normally
+operate the same as any other Django backend in this respect, but can
+additionally support database-level :ref:`autocommit mode <ref-databases>`
+with no constantly open transaction.
