select_for_update example raises TransactionManagementError

[Jim Nicholls]

The example for select_for_update at ​https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/4.2/ref/models/querysets/#select-for-update shows select_for_update being used before starting the transaction. With Django 4.2.5, this raises a TransactionManagementError.

Traceback (most recent call last):

django.db.transaction.TransactionManagementError: select_for_update cannot be used outside of a transaction.

I think the example should be:

from django.db import transaction

with transaction.atomic():
    entries = Entry.objects.select_for_update().filter(author=request.user)
    for entry in entries:
        ...
