Flushes all the previously watched keys for a [transaction](https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/using-commands/transactions).

If you call [`EXEC`](https://redis.io/docs/latest/commands/exec) or [`DISCARD`](https://redis.io/docs/latest/commands/discard), there's no need to manually call `UNWATCH`.
