There is certainly transaction support in Postgres 4.2, the last
Berkeley release before Yu and Chen converted it from PostQUEL to
SQL language. I don't have any older versions to look at, but I
would assume that it was designed into Postgres from the beginning
(~ 1986). There's a short project history in the docs:
