Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author
2006-12-01	Document the recently-understood hazard that a rollback can release row-level	Tom Lane
	locks that logically should not be released, because when a subtransaction overwrites XMAX all knowledge of the previous lock state is lost. It seems unlikely that we will be able to fix this before 8.3...
2006-07-31	Fix confusion between COPY FROM and COPY TO, per Gavin Sharry and Arul Shaji.	Alvaro Herrera

2005-12-02	Fix obsolete description of -h option, per Andreas Schmidt.	Tom Lane

2005-05-13	Update createuser examples to match the current program behavior,	Tom Lane
	and add an example showing assignment of a password. Per suggestion from Jari Aalto (via Martin Pitt).
2005-05-03	Alter the signature for encoding conversion functions to declare the	Tom Lane
	output area as INTERNAL not CSTRING. This is to prevent people from calling the functions by hand. This is a permanent solution for the back branches but I hope it is just a stopgap for HEAD.
2005-05-02	Backport fix for correct quoting in CREATE DOMAIN example. Per Robert	Neil Conway
	Treat.
2005-04-22	Backpatch of LIMIT / FOR UPDATE behavior, but keep pre-7.3 mention in 8.0.X.	Bruce Momjian

2005-02-22	Document that only a table's owner may TRUNCATE it. Per Keith Worthington.	Tom Lane

2005-02-22	Update initdb locale/encoding documentation description. Backpatch to	Bruce Momjian
	8.0.X.
2005-02-21	Document the "register" and "unregister" pg_ctl subcommands, for use on	Neil Conway
	Windows. Patch from Magnus Hagander.
2005-02-11	Mention that some psql environment variables come from libpq and note	Bruce Momjian
	more variables can be found in the libpq manual section. Mention .pgpass in the psql manual page section dealing with connection parameters and point to the libpq section for more details. Backpatch to 8.0.X.
2005-01-26	Close all cursors created during a failed subtransaction. This is needed	Tom Lane
	to avoid problems when a cursor depends on objects created or changed in the same subtransaction. We'd like to do better someday, but this seems the only workable answer for 8.0.1.
2005-01-23	Add tools/find_gt_lt to find < and > in SGML source.	Bruce Momjian
	Lowercase some uppercase tags so tools is more reliable at finding problems.
2005-01-22	More < and > changes to ampersands.	Bruce Momjian
	8.0.X and HEAD.
2005-01-22	More < and > cleanups converted to ampersands.	Bruce Momjian

2005-01-17	Fix minor thinko in pg_dump documentation of "-n" option.	Neil Conway

2005-01-14	Incorporate examples and doc patches from Mark Kirkwood and David Fetter.	Tom Lane

2005-01-14	Change Win32 client configuration files from .txt to .conf.	Bruce Momjian

2005-01-10	Add some real documentation about TOAST (finally). Combine this with	Tom Lane
	the old 'page' chapter and the recently added 'filelayout' chapter to make a coherent chapter about PostgreSQL's physical storage layout.
2005-01-09	Some more small improvements in response to 7.4 interactive docs comments.	Tom Lane

2005-01-06	Spell APPDATA as %APPDATA%, per recommendation from Magnus.	Tom Lane

2005-01-06	Adjust examples to avoid using keywords as identifiers, per Honda Shigehiro.	Tom Lane

2005-01-06	Adjust lookup of client-side profile files (.pgpass and so on) as per	Tom Lane
	discussion on pgsql-hackers-win32 list. Documentation still needs to be tweaked --- I'm not sure how to refer to the APPDATA folder in user documentation.
2005-01-06	Re-readjust synopses for CREATE/ALTER USER.	Tom Lane

2005-01-05	Fix example, change table name from 'array' to 'array_int'.	Bruce Momjian

2005-01-05	Revert cosmetic synopsis changes that break psql translations.	Peter Eisentraut

2005-01-04	Fix subsection ordering (DISTINCT should be described before LIMIT).	Tom Lane

2005-01-04	More minor updates and copy-editing.	Tom Lane

2005-01-04	More minor updates and copy-editing.	Tom Lane

2005-01-04	Add mention of performance impact on LIKE of non-C locales.	Bruce Momjian

2004-12-28	Make libpq default to localhost connections on machines without Unix-domain	Tom Lane
	sockets, rather than failing as it formerly did. Revert the thereby-obsoleted patch to make psql supply the localhost default.
2004-12-27	Move info about psql console code page issues out of install-win32.sgml,	Tom Lane
	where it doesn't belong, and put it in the psql reference page.
2004-12-22	Add mention that pg_ctl will return an accurate exit code when waiting	Bruce Momjian
	for startup or shutdown. We have always done this but it wasn't documented.
2004-12-20	Adjust pg_resetxlog to handle 8.0 WAL file names properly.	Tom Lane

2004-12-13	Spell checker run	Peter Eisentraut

2004-12-02	Disallow the combination VACUUM FULL FREEZE for safety's sake, for the	Tom Lane
	reasons I outlined in pghackers a few days ago. Also, undo someone's overly optimistic decision to reduce tuple state checks from if (...) elog() to Asserts. If I trusted this code more, I might think it was a good idea to disable these checks in production installations. But I don't.
2004-12-02	Rework libpq threaded SIGPIPE handling to avoid interference with	Bruce Momjian
	calling applications. This is done by blocking sigpipe in the libpq thread and using sigpending/sigwait to possibily discard any sigpipe we generated.
2004-11-27	Correctly name the Windows operating systems	Peter Eisentraut

2004-11-27	Update of conformance information to SQL:2003	Peter Eisentraut
	by Troels Arvin, Simon Riggs, Elein Mustain Make spelling of SQL standard names uniform.
2004-11-17	Document a limitation of COPY's new CSV mode. Doc patch from Andrew	Neil Conway
	Dunstan, editorializing by Neil Conway.
2004-11-15	Replace "--" and "---" with "—" as appropriate, for better-looking	Neil Conway
	output.
2004-11-05	Create 'default_tablespace' GUC variable that supplies a TABLESPACE	Tom Lane
	clause implicitly whenever one is not given explicitly. Remove concept of a schema having an associated tablespace, and simplify the rules for selecting a default tablespace for a table or index. It's now just (a) explicit TABLESPACE clause; (b) default_tablespace if that's not an empty string; (c) database's default. This will allow pg_dump to use SET commands instead of tablespace clauses to determine object locations (but I didn't actually make it do so). All per recent discussions.
2004-11-04	Minor documentation updates from Simon Riggs.	Tom Lane

2004-10-29	Fix broken example for PREPARE.	Tom Lane

2004-10-29	Improvements to the CREATE DATABASE reference page's description of the	Neil Conway
	TABLESPACE clause.
2004-10-24	Update for 8.0: pg_tablespace is now also a shared catalog.	Tom Lane

2004-10-22	In ALTER COLUMN TYPE, strip any implicit coercion operations appearing	Tom Lane
	at the top level of the column's old default expression before adding an implicit coercion to the new column type. This seems to satisfy the principle of least surprise, as per discussion of bug #1290.
2004-10-22	Fix documentation typo.	Neil Conway

2004-10-21	Update obsolete comments about COPY vs INSERT options, per Uwe Schroeder.	Tom Lane

2004-10-21	Disallow referential integrity actions from being deferred; only the	Tom Lane
	NO ACTION check is deferrable. This seems to be a closer approximation to what the SQL spec says than what we were doing before, and it prevents some anomalous behaviors that are possible now that triggers can fire during the execution of PL functions. Stephan Szabo.
