I wrote a while ago on utilising transactional DDL in your ruby on rails migration scripts so I decided to create a plugin.

In a nutshell:

Transactional Migrations is a plugin that ensures your migration scripts—both up and down—run within a transaction. When used in conjunction with a database that supports transactional Data Definition Language (DDL)—such as PostgreSQL—this ensures that if any statement within your migration script fails, the entire script is rolled-back.

All the details are available online so get out your $100, put on some party wear and come and support a wonderful charity.

And yes, even geeks are allowed!
