## Synopsis
This is a set of pacman hooks and script that automatically causes snapper to
perform a pre and post snapshot before and after pacman transactions, similar to
how YaST does with OpenSuse. This provides a simple way to undo changes to a
system after a pacman transaction.

Snapper has a ``snapper rollback`` feature, but your setup has to be properly configured to
use it. The exact procedure depends on your specific setup. Be careful.
Note that the pre transaction hooks occur before the pacman transaction but after the
pacman database is synced, if applicable. In other words, if you run `pacman -Syu` and
roll back the upgrade according to the above instructions, you will not have rolled back
the pacman database to the previous state. Thus, if, after upgrading and rolling back
the upgrade, you then install a package, it will possibly be a partial upgrade, which is
unsupported.
