2006-10-21Rewrite discussion of string constant syntax to bring it into line withTom Lane
the politically correct view that backslash escapes are deprecated.
2006-10-21Make index entry more specific.Tom Lane
2006-10-20Update release notes to current, and do a pass of editorial corrections.Tom Lane
2006-10-20Minor doc tweak: make a reference to pg_locks into a link.Neil Conway
2006-10-20Fix typo.Alvaro Herrera
2006-10-19Clarify note about interaction of log_statement logging with errors.Tom Lane
Remove obsolete note about logging of statements generated by plpgsql function execution ... that doesn't happen anymore.

< * Improve port/qsort() to handle sorts with 50% unique and 50% duplicate < value [qsort] < < This involves choosing better pivot points for the quicksort. <
2006-10-18Fix up timetz input so that a date is required only when the specifiedTom Lane
timezone actually has a daylight-savings rule. This avoids breaking cases that used to work because they went through the DecodePosixTimezone code path. Per contrib regression failures (mea culpa for not running those yesterday...). Also document the already-applied change to allow GMT offsets up to 14 hours.
2006-10-18Fix array operator refererence in release notes, per David Wheeler.Bruce Momjian
2006-10-17Fix up some problems in handling of zic-style time zone names in datetimeTom Lane
input routines. Remove the former "DecodePosixTimezone" function in favor of letting the zic code handle POSIX-style zone specs (see tzparse()). In particular this means that "PST+3" now means the same as "-03", whereas it used to mean "-11" --- the zone abbreviation is effectively just a noise word in this syntax. Make sure that all named and POSIX-style zone names will be parsed as a single token. Fix long-standing bogosities in printing and input of fractional-hour timezone offsets (since the tzparse() code will accept these, we'd better make 'em work). Also correct an error in the original coding of the zic-zone-name patch: in "timestamp without time zone" input, zone names are supposed to be allowed but ignored, but the coding was such that the zone changed the interpretation anyway.
2006-10-17Mark 8.2 release as 2006-??, not 2005-??, per observation by DavidBruce Momjian
Wheeler.

2006-10-17Fixes for CREATE CONSTRAINT manual page.Bruce Momjian

2006-10-16Arrange for timezone names to be recognized case-insensitively; forTom Lane
example SET TIME ZONE 'america/new_york' works now. This seems a good idea on general user-friendliness grounds, and is part of the solution to the timestamp-input parsing problems I noted recently.

2006-10-14FAQ updates --- This is a small cosmetic patch that adds pt_BR IRCBruce Momjian
channel to the lists of IRC channels, fixes a typo in the OID's question, and corrects the PGCluster's project name. Euler Taveira de Oliveira
2006-10-14Code review for --no-data-for-failed-tables patch. Instead of trashingTom Lane
one of the program's core data structures, make use of the existing ability to selectively exclude TOC items by ID. Slightly more code but much less likely to create future maintenance problems.

2006-10-11A bit of copy-editing on back-branch release notes.Tom Lane
2006-10-10Update FAQ for latest release 8.1.5.Bruce Momjian
2006-10-09Revise psql pattern-matching switches as per discussion. The rule is nowTom Lane
to process all inclusion switches then all exclusion switches, so that the behavior is independent of switch ordering. Use of -T does not cause non-table objects to be suppressed. And the patterns are now interpreted the same way psql's \d commands do it, rather than as pure regex commands; this allows for example -t schema.tab to do what it should have been doing all along. Re-enable the --blobs switch to do something useful, ie, add back blobs into a dump they were otherwise suppressed from.
2006-10-09Improve description of the pattern matching rules used by psql's \dTom Lane
commands (and soon by pg_dump).
2006-10-09Update release notes for releases 7.3.16, 7.4.14, 8.0.9, and 8.1.5.Bruce Momjian

2006-10-07Allow HISTORY/history.html to be generated by removing <link> elements,Bruce Momjian
per suggestion from Peter. Without this, the main doc links prevent those files from being built.
2006-10-07In release notes, always use </link> rather than </>.Bruce Momjian
2006-10-07The -X option in pg_dump was supposed to be a workaround for the lack ofPeter Eisentraut
portable long options. But we have had portable long options for a long time now, so this is obsolete. Now people have added options which *only* work with -X but not as regular long option, so I'm putting a stop to this: -X is deprecated; it still works, but it has been removed from the documentation, and please don't add more of them.
2006-10-07On platforms that have getrlimit(RLIMIT_STACK), use it to ensure thatTom Lane
max_stack_depth is not set to an unsafe value. This commit also provides configure-time checking for <sys/resource.h>, and cleans up some perhaps-unportable code associated with use of that include file and getrlimit().
