2005-09-21	Fix postgresql.conf lexer to accept doubled single quotes in literal	Tom Lane
	strings. This is consistent with SQL conventions, and since Bruce already changed initdb in a way that assumed it worked like this, seems we'd better make it work like this.

	> o Add single-step debugging of PL/PgSQL functions
2005-09-16	Rename pg_complete_relation_size() to pg_total_relation_size(), for the	Neil Conway
	sake of brevity and clarity. Make pg_reload_conf(), pg_rotate_logfile(), and pg_cancel_backend() return a boolean rather than an integer to indicate success or failure. Along the way, make some minor cleanups to dbsize.c -- in particular, use elog() rather than ereport() for "shouldn't happen" error conditions, and remove some of the more flagrant violations of the Postgres indentation conventions. Catalog version bumped.
2005-09-16	Update release notes for changes between beta1 and beta2.	Tom Lane

2005-09-16	Add note about pg_autovacuum settings not being saved on a dump, per	Alvaro Herrera
	Robert Treat.
2005-09-14	Various documentation improvements. Add a lot of index entries for	Neil Conway
	the builtin functions (although some more entries are still needed), and remove the duplicate index entries that have been causing collateindex.pl warnings. Consistently use "int" and "bigint", rather than a mix of "int", "integer", "int4", "bigint", and "int8". Make parenthesis style in syntax examples more consistent. Various copy-editing for newly-added documentation and SGML markup fixes.
2005-09-13	Minor SGML markup fixes.	Neil Conway

2005-09-13	Document the new autovacuum daemon.	Alvaro Herrera

2005-09-12	Fix cut-and-paste-o in TCP keepalives documentation.	Tom Lane

2005-09-12	Minor documentation tweak: make the capitalization of a section title	Neil Conway
	consistent with the other sections in this chapter.
2005-09-12	Make the documentation of GUC variables a separate chapter, rather than	Neil Conway
	a section of the "Server Run-time Environment" chapter. Also, move the SGML for the new chapter to a separate file and fix the resulting fallout.
2005-09-12	Update manual's introduction to indexes to reflect 8.1 changes; in	Tom Lane
	particular the addition of bitmap scans and the relaxation of rules about when multicolumn indexes can be used. Also some minor editorial work in other parts of the chapter.
2005-09-12	Fix a mistake in the documentation for SPI_getbinval(), per Michael Fuhr.	Neil Conway

2005-09-12	Forgot to add pg_pltemplate to the list of shared system catalogs that	Tom Lane
	appears in the REINDEX ref page.
2005-09-12	Add a few items to the release notes, and make a few more minor cleanups.	Neil Conway

2005-09-11	Many small improvements and copy edits to the release notes. Use "—"	Neil Conway
	rather than "-" for the "dash" character. Correct SGML markup. Make references to the names of contributors more consistent. Rewrite a bit of prose, and make some other similar cleanups.
2005-09-10	Update URL for FAQ_MINGW.	Bruce Momjian

2005-09-09	Fix the various forms of AT TIME ZONE to accept either timezones found	Tom Lane
	in the zic database or zone names found in the date token table. This preserves the old ability to do AT TIME ZONE 'PST' along with the new ability to do AT TIME ZONE 'PST8PDT'. Per gripe from Bricklen Anderson. Also, fix some inconsistencies in usage of TZ_STRLEN_MAX --- the old code had the potential for one-byte buffer overruns, though given alignment considerations it's unlikely there was any real risk.
2005-09-08	Create the pg_pltemplate system catalog to hold template information	Tom Lane
	for procedural languages. This replaces the hard-wired table I had originally proposed as a stopgap solution. For the moment, the initial contents only include languages shipped with the core distribution.
2005-09-05	Implement a preliminary 'template' facility for procedural languages,	Tom Lane
	as per my recent proposal. For now the template data is hard-wired in proclang.c --- this should be replaced later by a new shared system catalog, but we don't want to force initdb during 8.1 beta. This change lets us cleanly load existing dump files even if they contain outright wrong information about a PL's support functions, such as a wrong path to the shared library or a missing validator function. Also, we can revert the recent kluges to make pg_dump dump PL support functions that are stored in pg_catalog. While at it, I removed the code in pg_regress that replaced $libdir with a hardcoded path for temporary installations. This is no longer needed given our support for relocatable installations.
