Are incrementing integers the only atomic operations?

[S Ahmed]

Is the only operation that is atomic incrementing a integer value?

How about adding items to lists/sets?

[Jeremy Zawodny]

No.  All redis operations are atomic.

To be more precise, all individual operations within Redis are atomic.
Multiple operations can be grouped together and made atomic via
MULTI/EXEC. You can get a sort of optimistic locking via
WATCH/MULTI/EXEC.
